Yup low speed vibrations tend to be a torn bushing on the carrier
bearing. On a hill with lots of torque applied it will be much more
pronounced. They flex discs bolts do come loose if they are reused and
liberal amounts of loctite were not applied. I have done them on my car
3x now. Unfortunately my carrier bearing is singing again after only
three years. I would have thought that would have lasted longer.

In my 300SD, low-speed vibes were the result of a torn rubber bushing around

center bearing, sometimes called a carrier bearing. twice, a new bearing assy
(cheap from
rusty) solved the problem. MARK THE DRIVESHAFT before you split it to replace
the bearing--not
doing so means vibes all the time from an unbalanced shaft.
