High probabilty that your stabilzer arm bushings need replacement.This is very common problem.If this ends up being the case, u might to consider urethane bushings as upgrade.Good luck
My M635 started giving a shimming feeling in the fr drivers wheel at speeds of 45mph and up and hard acceleration, what
could it be any input is greatly appriciated.

Mine just started too, right around 45mph.
Check out BMP (www.bmpd.com). They sell the entire arm complete with bushings for a reasonable price. This makes sense once you factor in the cost of pressing the bushings. I am planning to replace the entire arms anyway because the arms may be bent from a previous owner hitting the curb.
