Sometimes tires that look perfect can cause a shimmy. Try swapping the wheels from front to rear and see if you still have the shimmy. If the shimmy goes away, you know it was the tires or wheels.

The bearings in the steering knuckles are likely worn. Common problem with a Jeep that has a few miles on it.

Have you replaced the tie rods, steering knuckle, etc?

As has been mentioned try swapping wheels/tires or get them balanced ( spun not static). Also make sure alignment ( actually toe in) is correct. You want very slight toe in about 1/8"
