My 240sx makes a grinding noise when i put it in reverse on a hill, this just started after i replaced the u-joint and yolk, Does anyone know wat this is?

Will balancing the shaft fix the problem?

Balancing will fix the problem at higher speed. Sounds like driveshaft is touching something.

I took it to a driveshaft place and the guy said he couldnt balance it plus i go there and he wont give it back to me without me paying him for it and tells me to retube it, then he shows it to me and the friking thing wobbling when it spins he said he could re tube it would that fix the problem?
