Default Good vibrations

My 02 seems to eat a pair of U-joints about every summer, now it's time again. My lift was on the truck when I got it, it doesn't sway, rides smooth, and no banging around. I had a dude check my pinion angle last summer and he said it was fine. I'm using Spycer U-joints, WTH! It's starts vibrating when it shifts into overdrive. I could propably trash them if I mashed on it during that time. What's going on? One year on a set of U-joints, come on...
Any info is greatley appreciated!!!

Thanks
Billy D

Don't know. Maybe it's time to go to a driveline shop and have it checked out. At the very least might wanna have the shaft balanced and have them install the ujoint.
