Well over the past week or so I have notice a vibration that seems to be getting worse at almost all speeds. I had my rear end rebuilt and 3.73 gears in stalled last month. My gears are starting to wine also. I don’t know if this has to do with the gears or if it could be an alignment issue. What do you guys think could be causing this?

I'd check alignment before anything

Is it kind of a shuttering and does it do it more when you are turning?

Here's another thought. Check your drive shaft bolts to the dif. They have a tendency to come loose after about 100 miles when you have taken the shaft off. Double check them for tightness first. Don't want to have a driveshaft come off when your driving. I know when we did my gears I had to retighten the bolts after about a week. It could be an easy fix.

It doesn't do it more when I turn but when I'm slowing to a stop or trying to inch forward it almost bucks a little. I can actually hear the vibration. I will get it checked out. Everything was smooth when I first got the car back from having my rear end rebuilt but its slowly getting worse.

I noticed a few spots on the driveway after I moved my car. I looked under and notice a drip coming off the differential cover. So I believe I'm losing transmission fluid.
