Best Answer

Something is loose and/or out of balance. Have the tires balanced, check them for a "slipped belt", check the CV joints, brakes, rotors, struts, tie-rods and any other components that could have worn. I'd have to ride with you to know for sure, but you could have one or more of your tires that are out of balance. From your description, I doubt you have a torque converter shudder, since the lockup usually comes in around 40-45 MPH. Since it is at 50 MPH, I would think tires are your most likely culprit.
