is the viberation in the sterring wheel or in the seat that will tell you where to look front or back and its not uncommon to get a bad tire or once the guys that mounted one for me dropped a weight inside and it beat the hell out of the inside of it

Might just be frame beaming. Normal condition.
If you have a vibration, the proper way to diagnose it is to use an electronic vibration analyzer or a reed tach and get the frequency of the vibration.
Next compare that information to some mathmatical calculations for componant rotational speed and this will tell you what componant rotational group is the source of the vibration
