I replaced the carrier bearing but I still have a vibration. How can I tell if I got it lined up properly.

If you didnt mark it properly before taking it apart, you wont. I got one of these from another shop and no matter how many times I had it balanced it still vibrated. My suggestion is do what I did and buy a used driveshaft from a salvage yard. Hope this helps

If I buy another I will still have the same problem with getting the drive shaft lined back up.
