Re: I am experiencing shimmying on the right front wheel...
You could have a bad tire or balancing is needed, you would need to move the tire to rear and see if shimmey goes away, if it does then you know its a tire, hope this helps.

if the wheel alignment is faulty ( castor wobble ) at 70 mph there is no way that you can describe it as a vibration as it virtually rip the steering wheel out of your hands. If it is a torque converter problem then at around 3850-4025 rpm stationary there will be a vibration of the vehicle and engine The sort of vibration that you are experiencing at 70 mph will come from a drive line problem. If rear wheel drive then it could be faulty "U" joints, worn slip joint or failed rear engine mount
If front wheel drive it may be cv joints or bent drive shafts,wheel bearings or brake callipers not moving freely on the mounting bolts.
Check the condition of your tires and suspension. this problem is usually caused by bad component or alignment. Special attention is given to camber and caster.
I also have a 2004 Jeep Liberty, with 75,000 miles. Mine does exactly the same thing and is worse while braking. Nobody seems to know what it would be that I haven't already had replaced.... Any ideas? :)
