It turns out it was the DS, after I replaced it the vibration was gone.

Thanks for the help guys and Billingsley for getting me the DS soo quickly.

Did you figure out what the problem was? you're describing my problem... I get the clunk clunk and everything, but I have a BMR chassis mount t/a instead of the Spohn. I don't think mine's the t/a though...
