Bryan,
   One other thought...
   Be sure to take a good look at your nosewheel bearings.  As you and I both know, what we think is strut shimmy can come from other things.  I'm just wondering if your wheel was removed during painting if the bearings were possible put in too tight or loose.  I was flying a Navy jet once when a nosewheel bearing failed on landing rollout and we could all feel it.  Luckily we had two nosewheels, so the other one picked up the load and we didn't break anything.
   Please let us know what you find out,
   Skip Slater
