Don't assemble the shaft in such a way that the crosses are misaligned by one or more teeth. The vibration comes from the driveshaft tube trying to twist as it turns, instead of the yokes flexing as the shaft rotates. Some of the smaller shafts have a keyed spline so they can't be assenbled wrong, but the larger ones have to be indexed properly as they're assembled. Jerry
