Getting the Wheeling Fever

Hey;
I read Jeepgirl4's posting about a death wobble, what is that? I recently purchased a 2004 TJ, and it has a nasty shimmy when I get to 55mph. It goes away by 60mph, and there are no other issues. I just assumed my tires, they are original equipment, were out of balance and plan to have them balanced and the alignment looked at during my next service. Is there something else I should look for?
