Find you a shop that can cut and balance drive shafts. They will be able to tell you what you're problem is.

This problem affects a lot of our trucks. Several treads have addressed the problem and I don't know that anyone has found a definite answer. I think one replaced his rotors and got rid of his, other than that, I can't remember a fix.
