I thought of that, but the fact that the vibes instantly go away when I left off the gas leads me to believe that they're not the problem.

Got my Tatton's rear driveshaft in the mail today. I'll slap it on tonight and see if it fixes any vibe issues.

Driveshaft didn't fix vibes. I'm trying 6 degree shims. I've got 8 on there now. I think I'm over by half a degree. We'll see if that fixes anything.

Also, the Rugged Ridge SYE output shaft seal leaked after one day... I ordered a National replacement seal.
