    I had the same thing happen to me before on my 91. I rebuilt the rear end and swapped gears. Car drove very smooth before. My gear pattern was good and pinion bearing preload was adjusted within spec. The car had a vibration at 110 -130. The ujoints checked out fine but I went and replaced them anyways. I even tore the rear end apart again and did it over. Nothing worked. I was going crazy!! I put in an aluminum ford racing driveshaft, the car was smooth as a foxbody could be.

    Back in the day, club member after member blew their brains out changing U joints and having the stock shaft rebalanced only to see a marginal at best improvement vs biting the bullet and buying an alum shaft.

    bought driveshaft, measures 45 1/2" u joint to u joint, won't fit, bottoms out on yoke before clearing pinion nut, going to have fun figuring this one out.

    u joints are bad meaning worn out or wrong ones? they are on an low mile aluminum driveshaft and look brand new, what is the difference between u joints for an aod and those for t5? checking parts online says there is a specific u joint for aod and one for t5 manual. Anyways gonna get u joints for manual and switch yoke from old driveshaft onto new one and see what happens.

    Bad as in worn, I had the same issue with my first Fox many years ago. They looked and felt good but once removed you could see missing pins.
