Default 1997 Rear Drums

When i go to brake at 25 mph or below my car feels like it is wobbling. But if i break at a higher speed it doesn't do it as bad. Can this be a sign that one or both of my rear drums are warped?

Second, when i am on the interstate at about 55-60 mph my car shakes to the point where my sun visors are wobbling up and down. Any ideas on what that could be?

-Thanks

The vibration at 55-60, is either your tires out of balance, or the lovely two piece driveshaft.

Ah yes i was afraid of that...But wouldn't it suck of i went and changed that out with a one piece and that not fix the problem. Any more ideas that are cheaper? Or any way to tell if that is the problem before I invest into it?

Check your shocks & struts, and other suspension connections (tie-rods, etc.). Get rid of the drums and go disc, kits are cheap on ebay -- I did it on my '95, and was glad I did.
