Mine did the same thing around 85 mph and up even when you let off the gas it vibrated untill it got under 85 mph....
I went and got my stock drive shaft balanced and he put in a new unaversal joint and 90% the vibration went away :-) well worth the $50.
I know my tires need to be balanced because I seen one of the wieghts gone and another moved so time for me to get them balanced
