Sounds like a bad balance, or a bent wheel. Could also be wheel bearing, or even...*gasp* check those lug nuts, got to love the old loose wheel syndrome...

Wheels slightly bent or just don't drive 75mph.

I dont think the procomp shocks are best but dont think they are your problem. What size tires? Like others have said sounds like your tires are out of balance.
You could also check your TREs. Tie rod ends Is it a side to side shaking or a up and down bouncing?

Did you ever find out what was causing this? My buddy just replaced all four shocks on his 96 Landcruiser with Bilsteins. Now has a very noticeable side to side rocking at around 75 miles per hour. His bro is telling him it is the Bilsteins not being heavy duty enough for the vehicle, which I know is not the case. Any ideas? TIA...
