    I will check that, but the universals are both brand new, unless he overtightened them or they are defective, i think there's more of a liklihood the problem is in the balance or straightness of the driveshaft itself than the universals on the ends... I'd imagine its just a longer shaft that was shortened to fit a 32, I'm figuring there's a fair chance it may have been welded crooked, has a slight bend, or something along those lines...I didn't find a tree big enough to do the official driveshaft runout "test" , but I'll start digging into it soon and keep you posted on what i find (or don't find!) Thanks for all the tips. -jb
