No, it's the stock driveshaft. They cant handle gearswaps and end up vibrating because the driveshaft now has to spin 3.73/2.73 = 36% percent faster at the same speeds. You could produce the same DS vibration by driving a stock 2.73 equipped mustang 75/.64 = 116 mph! Even then, the vibration damper thingy hanging off the pumpkin will probably help.
