Did you make sure to keep the same orientation of the parts? If the slip yoke is turned 180* to the driveshaft or if the driveshaft is turned 180* to the yoke on the differential, it can cause a vibration. Had this very thing happen on my dad's K2500. I did not take the old u-joints out, just put it back together and dad did not mark anything before taking it apart. Turned the driveshaft 180* to the rear yoke and that did not help. Need to drop the shaft again and twist the slip yoke to the driveshaft.
