did you double check where the shaft meets the diff to see if its bolted tight and not cocked at all?

And how bad is the shake? Can you see out your mirrors while driveing? Does the dash rattle? Do you feel the vibrations in the shift stick? When floor it does the shake stop?

When i got my na it did the same thing.......found out my rear end was going south...very loose inside, whining on decel and vibration because tolerances are off. I Swapped in another 4:30 and i was good.

Yep if you look along the shaft from end to end the caps all need to face exactly the same way, the rubber section at the end can slip and that will cause the issue you describe.
