Trying to resolve a 45-50 mph vibration in my '60 with an sm420.. Removed the driveshaft to rule it out, and the vibration occurs in exactly the same way: in 4th gear at 45-50 mph. Don't suspect motor or clutch since thi only occurs in 4th. Transmission is not original to the motor (283). Replaced a very tired 3spd.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Headed towards either a full rebuild kit, or finding another trans, but hoping I can find out what is wrong and save some money.
