Maybe I'm just not remembering, it has been years since I did this regularly.
The double-cardan joint on the rear shaft, especially with such little driveline angle, seems odd too?

Perfectly normal on both points

Well the issue has been resolved. It took three balancing attempts but they finally got it. Smooth from standstill to 70.

I will say that the shop did give me grief about my truck having a compound angle issue and that anther balancing wasn't going to help me. I knew that was nonsense and it took three weeks to get my shaft back. But thankfully third time is a charm! Getting this resolved is a big load off.

Many thanks to everyone here who gave input.
