Take it into a driveline specialist, about $40 should see you a checkover/diagnosis. Well worth it.

The bolts to look out for are the third member/diff bolts. If it is shaking your universal joint bolts and others loose you have an imbalance which will not be solved by simply lock-titing.

The important question is whether it vibrates at certain speeds. Mine had a nagging 108-110 vibe even after i had it checked, some things you can't quite eliminate.

Cheers
