<div>Is the damper weight still attached to the diff extension? That’s the triangular thing mounted with three rubber pucks. Check that and the extension mount as the final drive can easily set up harmonic vibrations just as you describe. In fact that’s probably
what destroyed the drive train on the Group 2 race car at Nuremberg ring in the 70’s. </div>
