Default 92 XJ Vibration

I was driving the Jeep today on the interstate, then I noticed that when I reached speeds of 50 mph it started to act funny.
I got a har vibration in the rear only. I first I thought I had a flat tire or somthing like that. Has soon has I let go of the gas it went a away.
I played with a awhile, giving it gas then letting it go. The vibration went
away when I let go of the gas.

It only happend in about 4th gear.

After I drove for about 20 mins it went a away.

It seems to be shifting okay. It has fluid. No check engine light is on.

Could the tranny be going??

92 XJ 4.0L auto 4x4 85000miles. white color

Yeah. It could make a clicking noise sometimes. I almost garantee it's a u joint. Check an see if there is any play in them. Most likely it's the one on the rear end. It's a easy fix
