Half way up is way too high for trim, that is in the tilt range and it should vibrate.
If you are going by your gauge or where the trim limit is set, you might want to recheck the dimensions to see if it's adjusted correctly and you aren't trimming too high.
The picture below shows the MAX trim up dimension allowed.
when i had the lower unit off i checked the u joints they seemed fine not sloppy, lose or anything like that so i greased them up and put back it back in. So ill check the the other things you suggested thanks for the help much appreciated
