Frozen/stiff Universal joint.

You have to undo the prop to test this. Undo it and check it can be moved smoothly in all directions.

My vibration was caused by Uni joints seizing. When I replaced the 5 uni's i put in ones with grease nipples and give them a pump now and then. Did this over 200,000 k's ago and they are still as good as new.
