there are two drive shaft bearing/bushings, i would check those or check the balance of your tires..

I saw one bushing bearing and 2 u-joints... and the tires i just had rotated and balanced the other day...one guy said it might be the rear diff....he suggested a welded diff or lsd if ima replace it

Did you replace the bearing or just reinstall it? I have the same problem. Any advice on doing this?
