No play doesn't mean the driveshaft is OK, the U-joints can be worn down. After I had mine out, some of the U-joins were hard to move by hand. There was noticeable resistance and no play at all.
I got a HD front shaft from BPUtah. Everything was fine since then, no vibration. Except that I needed a new TC, because the worn U-joints killed it.

Is there a way to tell if my front driveshaft has been replaced? It has grease fittings on it... I was told they don’t have those... I get a wierd vibration at highway speeds and suspected the shaft... climbing under the vehicle there’s doesn’t seem to be any play in the joints but, I still don’t trust it after hearing all the horror stories
Check your tires
also driveshafts sometimes come out of balance.
My first Tom woods shaft had a terrible vibration
replaced it with another Tom woods no issues
hit and miss
