so are your yokes/u-joints in time? that can also cause a vibration.

the only way the shaft will ever be right is to take it to a pro have them straghten it if they can, and ballance both pieces together, mark the way they were ballanced and put them back in the truck using the marks.

im not pickin on you, i do this every day and their is no way i could build a decent driveshaft without the specalized tools.

thats ok if you lol'd at the "i eyeballed the hell out of it" cuz i did the same thing every time i told somebody about it. the yokes should be in time cuz i took the driveshaft to him all together and he took it apart, fixed it and put it back together.
