Your axle does this driving so don't think highers the cure might wanna install longer yoke and try. Orr smaller blocks and shackles which will attack a different direction.

How's your trans mount doing? Read that sometimes that causes vibes just because of the change in angle after so much time.

If I can hijack quickly, how does this look for a pinion angle?

There's some way to check for clearance. If you can look up there and see it deteriorated that would be a good sign, ha. Otherwise they're 30-40 bucks and usually bad if the jeep is old and its never been replaced before. Wise to do the motor mounts at the same time, if you can.
