Phil,
Some other points, truck sounds real good, accelerates well, gear changes, wow, so smooth and quiet. The following are random thoughts that may get me somewhere, or not. I am tempted to try something a bit different. What if a weight was placed, of a significant size, on the wheel and then run again. If the shimmy was worse or better, then wheel/drum imbalance is the cause. It is a theory, if it can be made worse, then the opposite should make it better. I have a box of stick on weights, will try, 100g strips, a couple should do something. Then using the logic of the on car balancer, using the tyre valve as a starting point, should be able to do on road balancing. Problem though, is one wheel at a time is the best way, some more thought perhaps. Not overly keen on testing one wheel at a time on axle stands, the way it shakes could be a bit more excitement than I need.
