It's all the horses in full gallop...nah j/k. What type of vibration? Heavy, medium or lite. My tranny unusually vibrated at interstate speeds (65-75) and eventually had it replaced when it worsened. It was a heavy vibration and was accompanied by an equally strange noise. It was the torque converter, dunno if this is your deal but it's a start. Good luck. -Triple B

i just had something similar..my bronco had a vibration between about 50-60mph when i let my foot on or off the gas. everyone i talked to said the tranny or the torque converter. after much searching on the forums and under the truck i found out it was a u-joint on the rear driveshaft that was completely shot. cost me about $20. totally solved the problem and it drives great. might be worth checkin out...

hey , u might want to check your bolts on the driveshaft. I was having a vibration at about the same speed...one of my bolts on the driveshaft had wiggled out and another was 3/4 of the way out. Hope this helps.
