Default Bravo 1 Slight Vibration

Ok, I have a 29 Powerquest T-330 454 - when running at 3000 RPM i get a slight 3 second vibration .... then fine for 5 second then another 3 second vibration. My fault i totally forgot to do the pull the drive and do the U Joints it has been 2 years. I put may bee 25-35 Hours on in a year. My Fiend who is a talented mech said to get New U joints and a Gimble while we have the drive apart ?

Just Wondering your thoughts?

Thanks
Steve
