before i start,i tried to use search and cant find an exact issue for the problem.

a little while back i bought a 2000 t4r limited 2wd V6 with 130k one owner

yesterday riding down the highway about 70mph,there came a loud horrible grinding rumbling noise you could feel in the floor board,and later in the day started at all speeds,and would stop as soon as the breaks were pressed or the gas but when the gas is let go it got louder.

checked this morning and my u joints where bad,
i replaced them front and rear, drove the truck and it was fine went on the highway as soon as it hits 50MPH,it comes back worse than ever it sounds and feel like it has 35 inch mud tires on it,the wheel doesn't shake, but its the same grinding rumble loud noise its deep and its the same issue it stops when the breaks pressed and when the gas is let go it gets louder AND NOW it gets quieter when cruse is set

could this be an overdrive problem? my ball joints breaks and all look good and nothings loose or damaged what else could it be?

thanks for the help i don't know what else to do

i looked this afternoon and they seem fine but then i thought,and looked everything i read says mark the paints on these drive shafts (which ive never had to do but ive
always owned jeeps)

i didnt do it could i have it un-balanced and not put back rite causing the noise to be worse at highway speeds?
