Well you sir are one and a million.
Rarer than a jeeperconer.

Sorry but Ill need some kinda proof your sitting at 3.5 with nothing and having no vibes. I mean I'm not doubting your honesty. I'm doubting the Jeep. Get what I mean. Lol

Serious Offroad has them for something like $16 plus $10 shipping. Although I forgot to order mine and ended up finding it locally.

Will a worn transmission mount contribute to driveline vibes? I think mine is pretty bad, obviously gonna replace it, just wondering if that's why I'm still having such an issue.

Haha who knows probably one of those Jeep mysteries. I mean I originally didn't a 1/2 on mine and it was better. And then I went with 1 inch and its a lot better now.

I have a total of 3.5 inches of lift and was getting vibrations between 30-40mph. I made a homebrew T-case drop with thick-walled 1-inch steel pipe by cutting 4 1-inch pieces and used them as spacers for longer bolts. Since putting that in, no driveline vibes at all. At some point if I lift any higher will scrap the T-case drop in favor of a SYE.
