New CV Driveshaft Vibrations
A couple days ago I installed a SYE and moved the front driveshaft to the rear. I drove it like this for a few days and was very happy with the lack of vibration on the freeway. I ordered shims for the pinion angle because there was still a very small vibration coming from the rear axle. Now I took the Jeep to a shop to get regear and they also built me a new driveshaft for the rear while it was there. I picked it up today and on the way home I had a very bad vibration, worse then I had with the stock shaft. I'm wondering if this means that the driveshaft is unbalanced, or maybe the new CV joint needs to be broken in, or maybe this is a more serious problem. Any insight is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
