is it a "new" cv shaft? if its is used then have it balanced. if its "new" then how is your pinion angle? might need shims still even with sye to correct pinion angle....also something in t-case might not have been put back together right when sye installed?....

you did alot of work at once so figuring out what it is can be hard.

might want to check your gear pattern again too before your toast your new gears if thats the prob.

thats all i can think of for now
