Default Driveline Vibrations

I'm new to the forum. I am on the verge of purchasing a 2007 Rubicon with plans to lift it about 3" and run 35's. I am leaning toward the Rubicon Express 3.5" lift kit and would most likely replace the front and rear driveshafts with traditional dual cardan types.

My question is whether anyone with a similar setup has experienced any problems with driveline vibrations. My 2006 Rubicon has a 4.5" Nth Degree long arm lift and I run 33's on it. It has had an uncurable, though minor, driveline vibration from day one that I find extremely annoying, hence my concern.

Any information would be helpful.

Thanks!

Default Additional Information

I forgot to mention that the question regards the 2 door model with the shorter wheelbase.

The only thing I have seen is vibration because of incorrect pinion angle. This is cured by a quality lift kit with adjustable links.
