I'm a bit confused by some of the nomenclature being used in this post and some of the responses. I found this article helpful in understanding my driveline and it's set-up. Also, I have often consulted with Dr Diff for further verification of my findings before I alter things.

My driveline is smooth as silk until I get to around 98 mph. Once I begin to exceed that, I get a vibration that increases in intensity the faster I go. At 130+ it is down right scary, so I no longer exceed 100 mph. I believe it is related to the excessive freeplay at the yoke to transmission bearing, both of which are new. There are several posts about this here and on For A-Bodies only.
