well last nite i got to adjust the angles the front now is runing at the 5 degrees still the rear is at amost 3. the vibration seems to be better but its not gone. and when i put my foot in it, its still there big time.
Mjb1962 you say you raised your mounts up about 3/8. how much did that change your degrees on the output shaft. it might be something i will do to bring that down on that end of mine..

I pulled the rear drive line out last nite in the rain.. and replaced it with my old drive line after completely going throu it.. and well vibration is gone. I cant seem to be able to move the rearend enough to make a difference in it.. so i am back to the CV drive shaft..
found out why the old drive shaft was causeing problems not so much as it was bad as it was the plate that is at the end of it for the tensioner was broke and causing the shaft to bind.. i had one laying around from a drive line i rebuilt for a friend put it in and back on the road again.
So all this was no more than the rear drive shaft.. why it only showed up at a certain rpm i dont know but i do know its gone. and what i did to do that, I want to thank you all for the sugestions and input. I still plan on changing the drive line but i now i know i have to have a double cardian joint at the trans. When i get that in and working i will let you all know if it fixes the problems that have been caused by the standard shaft..
And again thanks to all

With the double cardan CV at the t-case you will need to put the rear axle pinion angle back to near zero. Your new shaft with the single cardan's at each end will work if you can get the angle's at the t-case and pinion equal and not much above 3 degrees.
