Still having some vibration

Alrighty, replaced the rear u-joint. You could wrench that poor driveline like no tomorrow. Cool. Truck runs great. Except when I am driving between 55-65 mph. Below it, above it, it cruises great. Drive 55-65 mph, I still get a vibration that will make the oil pressure guage vibrate rapidly, the drivers side mirror is vibrating, and the truck just feels different. Any other suggestions?

This is driving me crazy.........

Does the vibration occur at the same speed regardless of which gear the transmission is in?
Tires balanced?

Could be a busted belt in a tire.

I haven't thought to notice this. At this speed, it would be 4th or 5th.

God, I hope not. That would suck. I'll do the alignment/tire balance thing. Thanks guys.
