OP

did you have lower gears put in when you "did your rear end"?

Vibrations that come and go at those speeds are generally at the wheel and are a classic indicator of imbalance. I'd start with checking the wheel balance and then work back from there, focusing on unsprung components first.

I'll start by swapping the entire wheel/tire combo with someone's that doesn't vibrate and go from there then.
