Could be pinion angle if it is only at a certain speed but that would usually occur at a much lower speed than 135. Sounds like the start of a harmonics issue to me. Let us know how things go when/if you install a one piece driveshaft. You can chase the pinion angle around all you want but it wont be the cure. Problem is when you start to remove the factory OEM soft squishy rubber you can now feel the harmonics being transfered throught the car.

true... i could of thrown a weight at the drags. before the install i started to notice a vibe at around 95 to 110 with the stock uca and lca's the tires are towards the end of their life so im not going to get them balanced, mabye i'll rotate them, 2 were flat spotted when i got them ( $140 for 4 w/ shipping and 90% of the tread left, off a wrecked bmw and we were going on route 66 from chicago to san diego ) i guess new tires and rims in the winter, merry christmas to me
