Based on the information posted, I would say you have a worn transmission bushing and driveshaft yoke which is allowing too much play at the front of the driveshaft. If this is your problem, you should see some wear on your driveshaft yoke, and be able to visibly see yoke movement if you push up on it at the U-Joint. I went through a very similar experience with a vibration that turned out to be a worn bushing. In order to fix this, I needed to replace the bushing and the driveshaft yoke, and then have the driveshaft balanced (after the yoke replacement). Note that you may not see the wear on your yoke as I believe you indicated you swapped your driveshaft during your troubleshooting. If you need more info, please feel free to PM me.
