Steel driveshaft? Maybe with higher than factory
gearing? Any aftermarket suspension mods that
might have wanted driveline angle trued up?
Guessing is a lot more fun when we don't have
to guess blind. Putting mods in your signature
provides useful clues.

You should get an aluminum driveshaft out of the
junkyard, the steel one isn't good to overspin. It
was only put on 2.73 cars for a reason. When it
starts to bow and whip, it takes out tailhousings
and the occasional pinion yoke too.
