Ok so this makes no sense, I take the front driveshaft out of my jeep and it runs perfect. I put it in and I do above 50 mph and I start to get a vibration.....is my front driveshaft out of balance? I was thinking the SYE would fix it but that can't be it

Either out of balance or the u-joints are bad.

Good morning guys. Gonna set my rods and pistons in the engine tonight. Crank has been set already just had to wait for rod bearings. Went with King Bearings as Clevite77's wouldn't have been ready until December. Trying to get the engine set, broke in and tuned so then I can swap the front axle and transmission all before Jeep Beach and the Annual Ocala Forest ride in April.

By the way, hope you don't mind Gary, but I keep two pics of your rig saved on my phone now. I constantly see "You can't DD a set of 40" tires" or "The 4.0L doesn't have enough to spin 40"+ tires" so I post a pic of yours and they shut up real quick. Lol
