Muscle them around and look for play. Check the yoke at the 3rd member and the output shaft at the transmission. Does it have a double joint at the trans? As others have mentioned there is also a splined joint in the shaft itself. You can try and push pull and look for deviation...
I can't see feeling this in the steering wheel though.

Can't tell, but the shaking definitely isn't simply the front, that's for sure. The beast has just under 300K.
There is NO play in the u-joints that I can muster out of them at all.
