Question DRIVESHAFT Question

So I changed the whole rear hub assembly not whats causing the violent vibration. the way the shifter shakes and the rear end to, im thinking it might be the drive shaft. I had a custom drive shaft built for it is it possible that somewhere it came out of balance and thats whats causing it to shake like it is. The other thing I was reading was the perpelar (sorry bout the spelling) shaft in the book it said if its no good it can cause vibrations. At low speeds (under 20 mph) the car is fine but once ur goin the vibration continues.

anyone know the possiblities
1. the custom driveshaft became unbalanced

2. perpelar shaft is no good

Anyone have anyother ideas thoughts possible problems?????
