Default What Vibration?

Can someone describe the "vibration" that keeps being discussed after a lift install? I just put on a 4.5" RC kit on my 97 and everything seems good. I just want to be sure I'm not over looking something.

Yes, but what am I looking/feeling for? The rear view mirror is not in the floor board yet.

I used the TC drop but I have an Iron Rock Hack and Tap in the shop. I just hate trying to find shims and cutting the output shaft. If it weren't for bad luck...

I ordered the HaT just in case so I would have all I would need. My XJ is a DD, I have a 542 mile commute to work, but I want to wheel the **** out of it. What to do, what to do...
