vibration problem

The wierd thing with mine was the vibration starts at 60 (only in 5th), gets really bad to 80, but at 80 it calms (a window of about 3 MPH). If I drop the clutch and stick it in Neutral at 75 when the vibration is near its worst, the vibration stays there. If I get to 75mph and just take my foor off the accelerator, the vibration goes completely.
I have noticed that if I drice the thing for more than a few hours, the clutch gets spongey and after a full days driving it will only grind into reverse, however the following day once cooled down, it is back to normal. I think this is a different fault so will put in another thread for this one!

The thing with just cruising is that everything moves at the same speed but nothing is under load. My diff was like that for about 2 minutes before I left bits of it on the A1.

havin rebuilt both front swivels now with all new parts i still have the vibration. it doesnt seem to have made a difference. i have also now rebuilt the rear hubs with new seals and bearings as well just to iliminate them.....
im slowly loosing the will to live. i am going to have the tracking checked tomorrow.......it does feel like its coming from the front........i just dont know what else to try now

As it turns out my front prop was shot and it was'nt safe to drive (got recovered OK).
Just a thought, not sure if this has been mentioned or not, have you checked the bearing on the output shaft from the front dif?
