Default Vibrating 2005 ram 1500

I have a 2005 dodge ram 1500. When accelerating at speeds of 45-65 there is a slight vibration which seems to be coming from the rear or center of the truck. The vibration stops when I let go of the gas or go slower then 45. I was thinking maybe ujoints but was unsure. I did have a bad pinion seal on the dif which I replaced already.

My guess is U-joints. Just replaced them (174K miles) and had the rear rebuilt as well. I had the same symptoms.

I second the u-joint. Only way to tell is to check them for play.
