Default Vibration!!!

Ok I have been running the car and it seems that I will get a bad vibration when giving it more throttle, when I let off the gas. Could it be a universal in the rear? Any comments are welcome I would liek to get her running smooth.

Usually a bad u-joint vibrates bad on deceleration, if it is on acceleration, posibly an out of balance flywheel/torque convertor - this would be evident by free revving the engine - slighly do not get carried away. If the car on vibrates when in motion, then interrogate the driveline, do not forget about shifted belts in the tires or a thrown wheel weight.
