Sound's like a u-joint. Read the like below on how to check. But even then, you can still have a bad one. I had the joint replaced at a shop. All was good for 100 mile's, then I developed a 70mph vibration that I never had. I just installed a whole new driveshaft today, and all is well. The point is, I think the shop messed up some how, or something went wrong somewhere.

Also the drivelines have small weights to balance them, Ive seen were those weights fall off causing vibration that isnt noticable ant low speeds
