Default Not So Good Vibrations

Hi all,

I've read a fair bit here about vibrations but I'm at a bit of a loss.

My 02 Disco was fine, no real vibrations until the front drive shaft gave up in a big way. I replaced it with a heavy duty version with grease nipples etc.

I then got a bad vibration at around 75 which feels like it's from the rear so I replaced the rubber doughnut. Better, but not great, so I replaced the shaft with a UJ conversion prop to get rid of the rubber mount.

Well it's almost exactly the same except now I have a mild vibration at about 60 too. :|

I have new motor mounts to fit as it makes a funny noise/vibration when I pull away from a stop - seems from reading here that they would be the most likely candidate for that.

I guess I'll find out when I fit them if it helps with the vibration at 75 but I suspect it will not.

Any other ideas? This is a driveshaft speed vibration at 75 that clears up at 80. At least I think it's driveshaft speed - it's pretty intense. :/

Any help appreciated!

Thanks!
