problem with model

I was having a problem with a model i made, where the parts would shake a bit when the model moved in game, i triangulated it, and it stopped doing this, and today, i made a new model, loaded it up in the game, and it does the same thing, even though i triangulated it.... anyone have any ideas to what could be the problem?

Not sure if I could help, but if you could post a link to a video it would make it easier for anyone viewing the thread to understand.

I'm not a game expert but;
maybe the polycount is to high?
Maybe the start and end position off the animation is a little bit off which causes the flickering when performing a cycle on it?

Anyway good luckuser added image

Well i dont know how to make a video of it, but heres one of the models im having problems with

https://www.megaupload.com/?d=GH8VDRE8

any time i make a model with more the one part it shakes in game, well it doesnt really shake, its hard to explain really.... with a tank for example, i have the tracks, basis, turret, gun, on a normal model in the game, when the tank moves, the basis doesn't move an inch, on my models, the tracks stay still, but the basis acts as if its going over a bump road, and the plane in game the wings tip to one side and back to the other, its very confusing to my mind user added image
