Running now, but...Vibration

Finally got the Sy on the road with new diff and cv joints. There seems to be a bad vibration from 40 to 45 mph. It feels like it's from the rear, but it's hard to pin point. I can see the bed shaking I think. Once you exceed those speeds it clears up and is totally smooth up to ~ 85 mph. I haven't been brave enough to go faster. I'm going to turn the prop shaft one hole and try again. I'm also open to suggestios.
Thanks

Rotated front prop shaft one hole....:eek:)

Rotated the shaft one hole and it's much better. I also torqued it to specs which I hadn't done before. The rest of the train such as rear u-joints looked good, so I'm driving her to work tomorrow. She needs new front shocks and a re-balancing on the rear tires which should be done this weekend. There is a slight leak on the new(used) front differential which sucks. all in all I'm pretty pleased.
