For some reason this seems to be a not so uncommon problem. It's the 
deceleration part of your story that throws me. Generally the vibration 
would become more apparent under load. Some swear that yoke phasing is a 
factor & others say the it doesn't matter. I would check to see if these 
are indeed in phase. From what I have read  on this topic  this means 
the yokes on either end of the drive shaft should be in the same  
position. Sometimes rotating one end 180 degrees may have an effect, but 
the fixed yokes on the drive shaft should always be parallel. Drive 
shaft angle also has an effect. the drive shaft should be angled 
slightly to the differential but in line , making sure a worn trany or 
motor mount is not keeping the driveline straight.
