Default loud noise and vibrations when shifting/higher rpm's

I think my drive shaft is loose or a hanger or something, since i bought the car it makes a pretty annoying and loud vibration when driving and shifting, has to be the driveshaft, but i havnt gotten under it to inspect it yet really, its a 96 3800, anyone else ever had this problem? is it comin? and what is it most likely that went bad under there?

the v6 cars have a two piece driveshaft. this means you have a carrier bearing in the center and it sounds like yours may be failing. you can pick up a one piece driveshaft from any 4th gen camaro for it. check your transmission mount when your down there.
