Default Vibration while driving

1992 f150 flareside Automatic 5.0

While Spinning tires truck started wheel hoping before letting out broke the ears off the yoke attaching it to the rear diff. also but crease in driveshaft. went to junk yard and was unable to find driveshaft for 14 bolt transmission so changed yoke and put drive shaft back in driving it for awhile had small vibration mainly between 30-45 mph. Longer I drove truck vibration got very bad so I went back and got another driveshaft out of a 90s model ford and put in still has same vibration. so then went to advance and bought new universals for both sides and yet still have vibration.. its ver bad shakes whole truck violently between 30-45mph but at all times can feel small vibration in steering wheel but seems to slack off at higher speeds

Start by balancing the driveshaft, about $50 to $75. If that doesn't work completely replace the yoke that attaches to the pinion it may be bent.

Expensive burnout!!!!

So Ive went threw everything from the tail of my transmission back and no luck still have this vibration. I have found the rubber boot on my tail housing where the drive shaft goes in is ripped and after some reading on here I found a post about anoth vibration problem a guy said something about a Tail Housing or Tail Shaft Busing can be bad and cause a vibration? is that possible?
