driveshaft vibration?
I have a 98 EB Expedition and have had a shudder type vibration on deceleration
for about 35000 mi. It hasn't increased but is there most of the time. All else seems ok and i didnot find anything loose. any suggestions would be appreciated.This is a completely stock 2WD with 119,000 miles.

Check out this TSB from the NHTSA site:

I could be a number of things. But hey, if you want to give something I was surprised with try rotating the tires. Yup. When I moved a bad one to the back the vibration quit. (And I promptly got new tires.)
It's worth a try.
