Big update today.
My post re-gear vibrations are resolved. Yes! Finally!
Been working with a great local drivetrain specialty shop that's finally helped figure out the problem. There was no one root cause.
The on-vehicle balancing I posted a couple pages back helped. But not completely. The shop then replaced 2 items (front driver inner axle shaft and rear driveshaft yoke on the axle side), and adjusted pinion angles, followed by one more round of in-vehicle balancing. The vibes are completely gone as of this point.
I'm waiting for a detailed write-up from them and I'll post it here as soon as I get it.
Big thanks to everyone when has helped me and encouraged me and taught me. I owe you all a beer.
@JDRAM11 is going to try the same techniques at the same shop in a short while. We'll see if he has success as well.
