Stan & Dragonof,
Sounds like both of you put the Cardin shaft(s) back together out-of-phase. To be "in-phase", the yokes at each end of the intermediate shaft must be in the same plane...if out-of-phase, even one spline tooth on the slip joint, the shaft will run rough, tearing up the U-joint needle bearings, the transmission, differential, pinion bearings, etc.
