Hey
I have an 87 and had the exact same problem as you are having. I talked to some people on here who told me it was the tripod bearings and inner drive being worn and having some play in it, sure enough I tuged on it and it had play so I replaced the tripod bearing and inner drives on both sides and no more vibration. check out http://www.twinsaabs.com from instructions on how to do this, I followed it and it went fine for me. Basically what it wrong is at the tranny end of the drive shaft there is a bearing that has three ends (tripod bearing) and it goes into this cup like part that come out from the tranny and hook up with the tripod bearing to turn the wheels when there is play they are not right together so it moves a bit and you don't notice the moving till high speeds!
good luck and let me know if you need any help
Dylan
