Front end shakes violently when encountering successive dips or potholes at speeds between 40 and 60. Replaced tires, shocks, tie rod ends, steering box, and linkage. Constantly verifying tire pressure, when this occurs daily I must slow to a crawl or shake the steering wheel from ten to two to make it quit. Cant afford to replace anything else that doesn't seem to work total thus far is in the 900's.

Simply put in physics terms the front end goes into unwanted resonant vibration where the trunk is out of control. This has benn reported to the dealer and Ford customer service. They do not understand what unwanted resonance vibration is. The trunk is out of control and the driver has to use the emergency brake to slow the truck till the vibration goes away at about 30mph.
