Default Slight vibration in rear

I just had 3.73's installed in my 10 bolt coming from 2.73's and I drove about 20 miles on them, I got to my house and put it in reverse and noticed the rear would vibrate a little is this common in the break in period or should I take the car back to shop. The gears are richmond gears and they are brand new.

Who installed it for you? Reliable mechanic? Knows what hes doing? Did he check backlash?

from what I hear he is reliable and I think hes been building rears for at least 10 years, im not sure about the backlash. The guy ownes his own shop and seems like he nows what hes doing, so im hoping its not the gears

Alright I think I know what the vibration is coming from, Its my exhaust pipes rubbing against something, because I put in reverse, pulled ebrake and sat in back and it got louder then got out and it stoped.
