Vibration
Im getting a weird vibration at higher RPM's. It only does it on heavy acceleration, and it is dependent on RPM's, not speed. Does it in all gears too. If im going down the road at 70 accelerating it will vibrate like crazy, but if i push the clutch in it rides smooth as glass. If i let off the skinny pedal it will dissipate, which in my mind rules out driveline and ujoint issues, as well as out of balance tires.
Could it be clutch/flywheel related? I know my clutch is nearing its last days as it slips a little under load and when pulling weight up hills. Could this be whats doing it?

But do you guys think im right in being able to rule out all the driveline components and ujoints? Seeing as how it does it only when accelerating and the clutch is engaged? If so that takes a lot of the usual vibration causes out of the list.
