Oh interesting mine was opposite. Have you tried bolting on someone else’s Tcase? It has to be either Tcase, Driveshaft, or diff since removing the rear shaft cures it

Well, had a shop replace all the internals of the rear diff. New rear DS, X3, t-case rebuilt. Only thing left is the 3550 slushbox.
OP
sheesh that sucks man. Vibes are maddening. I have vibe PTSD sometimes when my sub hits too hard and my mirror shakes while I’m on the freeway
Yeah, I just turn mine up and play some 5 finger death punch to drown it out.
OP
Got the ZJ tie rod in! I highly recommend anyone with a stock tie rod goes to the local junkyard and gets one off a ZJ. It literally cost me $10 and there were like 10 ZJs there to choose from. I can’t believe the difference between the two.
OP
So there are definitely increased idle vibes but it’s really not that bad. If you listen to music you won’t notice them. If you sit in traffic for long periods of time in silence you’ll hear them. Personally for me the advantages of it far outweigh the slight idle vibes. The second you step on the gas they go away. I do a ton of stop light town driving and don’t mind it a bit
OP
I should also note that the increased vibes are only present with the AC on. When AC is off the idle is smooth as silk

Picked up some bestop soft lowers and uppers today off craigslist for $200! Gonna see how the soft lowers do on the way to some wheelin today! Couldn’t resist that price
OP
Got to put some of that belly clearance to work today!
Now I need some more booty clearance. I was smackin my tank all day and the edge is all caved in now. Savvy GTS gets here within the next few weeks hopefully.
I’ll upload more pics from the trip later.

This right here is where you don’t want to be. 3 wheels leaning towards a hundred foot cliff. Too much pucker

Just watched your video. Your co-pilot seemed calm and collected even on that front wheel lift.
OP
Which was impressive considering if I rolled there was a giant cliff to the passenger side I would have tumbled down. That’s my dad he’s a pretty cool dude.
He spotted you well. Had you not went passenger when the driver front was in the air you surely would have rolled.
OP
Yeah I’m pretty lucky to have a guy I can put full faith in on the trail.
