make sure your tires are balanced properly and are not missing any weights. You can also check your alignment, and/or check for worn out front end components (tie rods, ball joints, etc).
Also, how are your brakes? Maybe you have a wharper rotor, are all lug nuts tight. There could be a million possibilities. Good luck.

 Where does shake feel from? Does it come through the steering wheel or does the whole truck shake? Did it just start? Did you recently do a brake job or other suspension work? Rotate the tires? >>>>>>>>> |

My truck was doing exactly what you are describing. I went to my local tire shop, they checked it out and changed the rotors for me, fixed the problem. No more shaking!!!
