All I could add about ujoint replacement is to mark the driveshaft parts so you put it back together the same way. Sometimes the driveshaft being “out of phase” can cause balance/vibration issues.
Watch some YouTube vids on ujoint R&R procedures might help.

I appreciate the feed back. It seems that U joints are the most common thought. I haven't had a chance to climb under and check the drive train but will try to this week.

In researching U joints, it seems that the vibration starts when you let off the gas. When I do this there's no vibration until I coast to around the 25-30 mph range. Not sure if this changes anyone's thoughts, not sure if I was clear.

Is this something that a novice could handle? I've done the basics (brakes, rotors, power steering line) but nothing too extensive .I know enough to get myself into a project, not necessarily enough to get me out.

Thanks again!
if you have trouble with the u joints, you can just pull the driveline and there are shops that can do them for a basic cost if you take the drive line to them, around here I think the guy said $50-80 something to that effect he does all the farmers vehicles and basically anything with a driveline.
