Thanks for all the help!!
Sorry, I've been on sabatical. A good differential shop should be able to check and balance your drive shaft.

Often changing rear diff can require a different drive shaft, or at the least, having it re-balanced.

When I put the 12-bolt on, I had to change drive shafts and had to have it balanced prior to installation.

Ok quick update. This is resolved so it can be marked so.

The source of the issue was a poly trans mount. I put in a stocker and the issue went away!!
