"HELP!" 94 z32 driveshaft problem

[aoz32]

What's up people I'm new to nico so let me begin by giving a bit of info. I recently just bought a 1994 z32 non turbo automatic. It needs a bit of work but I'm dedicated to getting it to the shape it deserves. Here's the problem when I hit the gas and start running as soon as I get to 10-20mph it starts to rattle/shake like there's something stuck on the driveshaft. I was told by the previous owner that the driveshaft was just loose? I'm not a big gear head but I am starting to do as much research as I can. Any help is appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Very possible the center carrier bearing is out, which is very common on these cars. That is why most people go to a one piece driveshaft. Easiest way is to jack the car up, set on jack stands, go underneath the car grab the shaft see if it moves by pushing it up into the car. If it moves, that is your issue.
