-3,-2 didn’t work :(((

Honestly that where I’m at. Gonna call up tom woods and see what he says.

I’ll try -3 and -2 too. Driveshaft shop made the vibration worse btw. Wonder if it could be a faulty driveshaft somehow. Ughhh

Again idk if I’m using this right but something is off right???

What do you guys think? Might that be my problem? Never used a dial indicator before but something definitely seems out of whack there!

Glad you figured it out! That sure is frustrating but just be happy you aren’t in my shoes. I’m still scratching my head. All I know is that it’s in the rear. Anyone want to come take a look?!! LOL

I think isolating between a front or rear vibration is most important at first. If you suspect it is the front, remove your rear driveshaft and drive it in 4WD. If it doesn't go away, then try removing the front. This is how I isolated my problem to the rear driveline. Then you can also rule...

The rebalance of driveshaft didn’t work. Nor did the replaced ujoint. I’m completely running out of options. Last option is my transfer case rear output shaft. It is a little noisy back there. Tbh idk what normal sounds like either. If that doesn’t work I’m stuck. At least I know it’s in the...

I’ll keep you posted. I appreciate it

True. Thanks. I had a regear done 2 years ago. Vibration was well before this. So I’m gonna rule out the pinion nut but it doesn’t hurt to check it while the driveshaft is out. I’m going to get a dial indicator and check but place I took my driveshaft to a shop and they said ujoint showed signs...

Update everyone! Sooo we are getting somewhere. I removed the rear driveshaft and put the front back on. Low and behold. The vibration is gone! I have deduced this vibration to 1 of 3 things. 1. Bent output shaft in transfer case. I have ordered a new SYE kit. I think this is the culprit...

Soooo. Bought an angle finder and got my driveshaft at 19 degrees and diff at 17 degrees. Still got the vibe. I’m gonna try taking the rear driveshaft off and using front only. Thought I’d also note that the vibration is gone when I take the jeep out of gear and coast. I’ll reiterate that the...

Lmao!

I don’t. Guessing getting it perfectly straight +- a degree is gonna be pretty hard by eyeballin it. What do you suggest? I had a cheap magnetic one and I could never really find a place to measure from that’s perfectly flat...

How does this look?

I’ll try the front driveshaft next and remove rear.

This geometry looks good right?!

So. I’ve had the new driveshaft balanced twice and they said it was fine. I pulled the front driveshaft and the vibration got better but it’s still there. I have to turn off my music to really notice it. I’m beginning to wonder if I’m just being too picky or if there is actually an issue. Ughhh

It was there well before my regear so we can cross that off the list. I'll pull front driveshaft when I get a chance and try that first. After reading some of the other vibration posts, could be a ujoint in front driveshaft. Didn't think that could be it because they look good but I'll start...
