if your OEM drive shaft is giving you a vibration, you most likely bent it or knocked off a weight. over time, this vibration can cause your t-case housing to crack. i don't know how expensive it is to balance a factory shaft or if a regular shop can do it but, depending on how bad the vibration is, you should be okay for a while but. when you can, you really should just have it replaced.
