Default Front prop shaft vibration at 55+ mph

My 96 Cherokee XJ (240k miles and still running strong) has a vibration problem at highway speeds with several different front prop shafts installed. I have had two of them rebuilt and balanced, but the vibration is still there. No vibration with the front prop shaft out. What should I check and in what order? Want my 4WD back. Thanks

Any play in the pinion yoke? Leak in the seal ? Maybe you have a bad pinion bearing.
