Default Vibration issue

I have a stock 1995 Jeep Cherokee XJ 4.0 High Input Inline 6. The problem I am having is when I get up to 45mph or faster, their is a constant vibration and it just gets worse as I go faster. I just had the u-joints replaced for the driveshaft on 2/14/2020 and the vibration is still their but not as bad. My jeep doesn't have the death wobble and none of the tires were out of balance. If anyone has any answers on what it could be, I'd really appreciate it. Thank y'all and I hope everyone is having a great day!

4x4 or 2WD?
Auto or manual?
Today is 2/14/2020, so you had them replaced today?
And I believe you mean high OUTput, not high input...

Where do you feel the vibration from? Front, rear?
front - check the u-joints in the steering... also check for worn components in your linkage... tie-rod ends, steering, etc. ball-joints too. anywhere there can be play can equal vibration at speed.
rear - I'd start with checking everything is tight on your suspension...springs, shocks. etc.
Do you hear any audible tones/noise with the vibration?
