Try having you driveshaft turned 180 degrees and reinstalled, see if the vibration lessens in any way at the same speed. Mine would "whip" at around 80-90mph (it's a one piece and it sounds like yours is a two piece?). I had it removed and rotated 180 degrees and the vibration changed completely. I then went out and bought an aftermarket driveshaft and now I have no vibration. This may not be what's causing your vibe, but may be worth a try. Good luck down there.

They may be balanced, but are they true and round? Are you sure you don't have a bent wheel?
