When I first put it together, I had replaced the first U joint, I was off a little. The first 2 joints were facing the same direction, so I R&R'd the rear section to ensure all 3 U joints are now inline.

I got the same low vibration at 70 mph with the propshaft with both configurations.

I guess I need to get it on a lift, with the wheels hanging, bring the shaft up to speed and see what is wrong. I don't like the idea of having the rear of the car on jack stands with me lying under neath :>(
