Nasty Vibration

I went through a vibration problem with my car and it ended up being the universals that the drive shaft company installed were .040 too short in the sleeve that they sat in. Another words, if you messure the end to end of the universal, they might not fit exactly the way they are supposed to. I found it by going under the car, when getting myself back out, I grabbed the drive shaft and it went clunk. It was only .030 to .040 too short, but I went crazy looking for the vibration. The manufacterer was I believe Splicer and they were the 1350 solid joints.
