dan, I posted with the same problem on my challenger this past summer. I have changed every thing from the flex plate back, with the same results as you. The only thing left is the rear diff housing. I was looking for Santa to leave a new Moser housing under the tree this year LMAO.
scott 
LMAO well if this other trans doesnt do it, i have another housing thats getting powerder coated next week, but i dont really think its the housing if it still has the vibes without the axels in it on the jack stands, still gonna change it anyway, i also measured the wheel base the other day and there was only 1/8" of a difference between sides.

i think it's the output shaft. any chance you had two bent ones? when you changed the driveshaft did you use the same front yoke or did you use a different one?

well the trans is out, and i pulled the flexplate to get a better look at it and saw that 2 of the torque converter hole were a lil worn, and the other 2 are perfect, would the 2 hole that are perfect keep it all inline? not sure if this is the problem, just went out and bolted the flexplate to the converter kept the bolts loose and i cant turn the flexplate on the converter it fits nice and tight no moverment http://picasaweb.google.com/cudadan360/Flexplate?authkey=WKEd3o52m3Y#
