My car makes a vibration in the gas pedal around 60 KPH, its audible and will go away if I lift off the pedal and reapply the pressure immediately afterward, but will continue if I dont lift up off the accelerator.

This car does not have u joints? It sounds like the engine is misfiring or the CV axles need to be replaced. Do you have a check engine light on? If so I would say the engine needs a tune up. This guide can help
