I've done a search here and it seems quite a few people who have the 65mph shakes, own pirelli scorpions, that are cupping on the inside.

Please chime in if you are expierencing the same problem.

I'm not going to start replacing a bunch of parts in the suspension if it is the tires. My navajo only sees about 10k miles per year and my scorpions have about 15k on them and are cupping bad up front.

They are good quiet tire. On-road and offroad, and wet traction is great.
 






my truck gets a lil vibration at ~70 mph, but my scorpion zeroes arent cupping.
 






You might want to check your tie rods and the ball joints.
 






...and check your wheel bearings and radius arm bushings...

unless you've got cupped tires or out-of-round wheels or out-of balance wheels, the problem ain't with yer Pirellis.
