Exclamation Please Help Me Out WIth A Vibration Problem...

Its concerning a vibration from the rear of the car, mostly on the drivers side. At speeds of about 50 mph and more on highways. When I let off the throttle, I feel an intense vibration from the rear of the car. Its more intense right when I get off the throttle. I cant even see out my driver's mirror its so bad.

I recently had the car 4 wheel alligned b/c of new wheels/susp. I also had the front and rear wheels balanced. The only thing I can come up with is the new driveshaft from the conversion from the Lexus to Toyota one . It had to be measured 2 different times before being installed. Also had the same problem with old lexus wheels on the car too!

I just put 19" Axis Wheels on the car. It also has Tein Flex Coilovers. My car is a 94 Lexus SC300 with a 2JZGTE and 6spd comversion. Thank you

Could be your drivshaft needs to be balanced, your u-joints should be good/new if the recently lengethed your driveshaft. It might be a rear carrier berring, or something messed up in your rear end. Any sounds when turing slow or sounds? MAKE SURE ALL THE BOLTS ON YOUR DRIVESHAFT ARE TIGHT!!!!
