Default Vibration in rear

I have a slight vibration that peaks from 50-60 MPH while cruising. This happened after installing a Moser 12-bolt with Eaton HD and 4.10s. I switched to an aluminum driveshaft with a new u-joint and it only helped a little.

Anyone know what it could be?

I'm sure someone on this board has successfully fixed this problem before.

Damian said that the added repetitions on 4.10s causes the vibrations.

Try taking the driveshaft out and rotating it 180 degrees and re installing it. That fixed alot of vibration problems i was having with mine.
