I also had to have a custom driveshaft built and ended up with a vibration that drove me and the guys at the trans shop nuts. It turned out the custom drive shaft I had made was about 1/8th of an inch too long and was stressing the u joints but only certain rpm's. There was a lot of trial and error trying to find an answer to this situation but it worked out in the end. I hope this helps if you haven't found an answer to the problem yet. - Bill

    Thanks .... It looks like all opinions agree that driveshaft is most likely cause .... Thanks to all for input! Paul Cialone
