Question Vibration over 65mph...need some input.

I have a slight Harmonic vibration over 60-65mph on the highway BUT, only when i let OFF the gas!
over 60-65 and under 60 NO vibration but when I'm over 60mph and let off i get a vibration. any ideas?
wheels are balanced, drive shafts in check.
i think maybe the rear u joint might be going? or maybe the transfer case needs to be dropped a little more?

i have a Rubicon express super flex 4.5" lift with Cooper 32" Discoverer STT tires. and the kit came with 3/4" transfer case drops, that i did install but the vibration is still there...

sounds like something a u-joint would do. I am guessing that this jeep is lifted for you to have dropped the transfer case. Once you start doing that I wish you luck. for every action there is a reaction and sometimes its hard to find.

since it's only when you let off the gas i would lean towards a shaft issue as well....
