There will be something in the driveline out of balance or worn, usually the tailshaft, uni's or sliding joint would be the first suspects.
It could also be caused by driveline angles if you have changed/lifted the suspension.

I think just about every GQ does this , its just a slight imbalance in the drive line to the front diff, it shouldnt get any worse.
