Couldn't resist a vibrator joke. Check you track bar first. Make sure its tight, axle centered, all that. Also, I do hope you put in new CV style driveshafts? If not, that may be it. That's too big a lift for stock driveshafts.

Nice punctuation, makes for easy to understand posts...


How about a little more info on your specific setup (all components) and when/where you are getting the vibration. Certain speeds? When turning? After hitting bumps? Front or back? Started with the lift? Lift and tires at the same time? Psi on the tires? Alignment numbers?

With absolutely no information other than 'can't get rid of vibrations', how can anyone possibly help you...

Sorry about the misunderstanding not much on punctuation. I have a 2010 2dr rubicon, with a 6 inch procomp long arm suspension 5:13 gears 35 micky t claws, teraflex driveshaft in the back and a je reel in the front I am getting the vibe from the front shaft at between 48-52 mph and then it settles out. New shaft will be in next Friday so well see if the new custom Tom woods fixes the problem well see what happens. (punctuation)

i'd be curious to know what they have your caster set to. that's an awful lot of lift for just the 35's. you might need to adjust your front pinion angle up a bit and go from there. seems like the shop would have tried that first instead of just getting you to order a new d/s. unless i'm missing something here?

Ya I would have thought that to. Don't have any idea on the angels yet but if this doesn't fix the problem there going to have to do some drastic moving of parts. 6 inch is a lot I know but wanted to make shur I got high enough the first time ya know :whiskey
