Driveline problems!

Ok, this is something that has been bothering me for years now.
the car has major slop in its driveline, combined with alittle rough cruise map, this makes for a wery uncomfortable ride. this has gotten worse over the yearsm and i have no idea what causes it.
my engine mounts are 100% solid race aluminium mounts, the diff was changed with no improvement, the diffmounts are solid Delrin. i have a solidmounted brace on my gearbox and the PPF has no cracks in it. everything on this car has been changed at one point (so its not a flywheel/clutch issue) the only things left are the axels, the driveshaft and the transmission.

has anyone dealt with this problem before?

take your driveshaft off and check the u joint connecting the Yolk to the driveshaft and rear u joint to the diff. if those look great than, lastly it would be your axle's. but honestly, I haven't seen any bad FD axle to cause vibation yet. it's usually the Yolk or the u joints.
