Caught the Bug
After recently swapping gears to 5.13s and having the front driveshaft changed to a J.E.Reel 1350, I picked up a high frequency, oscillating vibration. Thinking it was driveline angle related, I ditched the AEV Brackets and stock lowers and replaced them with EVO Lower Control Arms.
I have slowly been adjust the pinion and have gotten to the point where I am sub 3° on caster and the arms are as short as they can go (22-1/2ish). The steering was flighty and no charge change in the vibration. It stays the same from 3° all the way to 4.8° degrees of caster.
I've pulled the shaft and the vibration completely disappears. I would think this 100% points to a driveshaft issue (balancing or a bad joint) and I plan on giving Drew a call at ORE this morning, but thought I run it by the group first before they open up.
Thoughts?
Thanks!
