Just a possibility--I think I'd take a serious look at your engine mounts
first-- check for broken mounts, if solid then I'd check the torque on
all the bolts. Loose or broken engine mounts will allow the powerpack to
"roll" slightly and may cause a misalignment of the drive train.
If all is well with the mounts I'd next look for worn drive-line parts (
yokes and u-joints).
Good luck,
Frank
