New vibrations after new leaf springs and shackle relocation kit.
i need to ask you guys and gals what the best approch is to finding driveline vibrations. Just upgraded saggy leaf springs and a shackle relocation kit in the rear. It originally had a 3in rough country lift, the rear started sagging from shot leaf springs. Now the rear is about 2.5 to 3in higher in the rear. So the total lift is 6 rear and almost 4 in the front.
I have major driveleine vibes after 30kmpg (20~mph) and it then upon releasing the gas pedal, it sounds like a clunking noise based off of my speed. I looked at my rear driveshaft angles and the pinion angle is perfectly paralled but the transfer case is at 4 or 5 degrees.
I guess what im asking is for any pointers on people who have made their own budget lift and found vibes after their work.
I thought that a SYE, new rear driveshaft with CV, or transfer case drop as last resort...
Thanks in advance
