Drive line Vibration Issue - Possible Root Cause

This guy ran over a mattress and decided to keep going. The ensuing jumble finally whipped around enough to put a tear in the gas tank, the subsequent lack of fuel is what finally brought this vehicle to its knees.

It had still managed to drive 30 more miles decently with a 60lb tangle wrapped around the drive shaft.

This genius complained that his vehicle had a "shimmy" when driving it high speeds.


This is what the dealership found..............

HA HA, I intentionally ran one over during a joy ride in an old Valiant. Not as bad as that dude but it stopped the car and caught on fire. Put the fire out with the beer we just bought.
 
Hey Joe, you're never gonna believe this...

At least it gave the shop guys something to talk about for at least a week.
