Is it a stick or an automatic?

How fast are you going when it vibrates? When does it stop?

you lucky dawg,you have a rare option,ive been looking for years for the optional testical jiggler.
sounds like it could be id check brakes,ujoints,rearend,trans mount,you have someone in it and lay underneath it and see if you can tell where its coming from,but you need to be fairly skinny |

Did you replace your torque converter at the same time? How does your tranny fluid look? What color, how does it smell, how bout taste, (just a little taste, don't need to lick the whole dipstick)
I'm thinking either verter or bad clutch packs. ------------------ '69 G.M.C. 350/350.
