Default Has anyone had problems with Drive Shaft?

The dealer installed a brand new Trans on my 2001 GS430. Now at 80mph and higher the floor of the car shakes. . Heard it could be a few different things with the drive shaft. I appreciate any feedback.

Did they check and balance the drive shaft? I've seen new drive shaft does this..
