Nikon flash sync problem?


 
 
I'm having a problem with my Nikon FM and I can't tell if it's a shutter malfunction or a flash sync problem.
I recently started getting a dark area on one side of the frame, not quite a black band and usually at the top of the frame.

Shutter is at 1/125 which is the rated flash sync with this camera, motor drive also on.

I'm using studio strobes, Excalibur 6400's.

I'm thinking just go to 1/60 second on the shutter and this may clear
the problem.

Any ideas or comments.
