Default Think my pinion angle is off

I took her out on the highway last night and was going to open it up since I never tried much high speed in it. This was around 2am so not many cars on the road. Over 100 the vibration got bad I had it close to 130 but couldnt go any faster cause it just got too bad. I have lowered the car and I got a TA relocation kit which seems to lower the front of the TA a little also. If I got a adj TA do you think it would eliminate the vibration? B4 all of this it use to be pretty smooth.

Try on and off the throttle, if it changes much then it
might be driveline angle, if it only changes with speed
and not pedal look for a wheel balance, bent axle, bad
shock kind of problem (though bad shock only allows
it to "bloom", not cause it directly).

Im pretty sure it was better once off the throttle. Im about positive its cause the pinion angle but I guess part of it could be the DS also since I will feel more vibration with the TA relocation. It never noticed it before the TA relocation and spring/shock install. The lowering plus the TA relocation prob threw it off a good amount.
