^^^That is post #1, did you delete your original post?
Edit: Looks like you edited your post, I watched the video. I haven't noticed a driveshaft do that before, however I don't think I've ever shook one back and forth like that before. I think I would still use it if you haven't noticed any vibrations. However, a used replacement won't cost that much.

Thanks for the reply it actually is making a noise a clunk everytime I I make a right or left at slow speeds to pull into a parking spot other than that everything is fine...I've replaced every suspension piece hoping to stop this clunk and nothing worked the only thing left back there is thr drive shaft and Differential and was hoping this noise in the driveshaft was it

I've seen the scraper thats usually spot welded inside the drive line at the slip joint come off and rattle around in the drive line (If your driveline has the slip joint, I can't view the video)
