The max from the documentation posted above says no more than 3 or you get conflicting sin waves which result in the vibration. Vibration comes and goes with suspension compression. Smartest words today!!!! 5 degrees and rear pinion is up 5 degrees. Need more lift, would the drive shaft be ok? He showed it to me and it doesn't look right but I'm not real familiar with lifted trucks.
Drive Shaft Alignment Angle
Anyone running a 3 to 4 inch lift tell me what your drive shaft angel is after the lift and how it's running with that angle. Go into it knowing that and budgeting for it and no big deal. I am of the opinion this is 100% due to the pinion angle but I am not sure why some people do not suffer from it like I have been. 6 degrees, the shaft at 12. 5 bed along with an add-a-leaf and it was fine, but I remember the shaft being a 1 piece. It was quite a bit less than getting the pre built ones from toytec. Lift blocks are square. The vibration on my truck has been so bad that I stopped driving it and have been just driving my car for the last while. Join Date: Jun 2010. I had a local 4x4 shop custom build a bracket that dropped the carrier about 3"s and while it did help the vibration it didnt eliminate it, I went back to the place and informed the owner that it still had a vibration and he said he dropped it as much as he could and I would have to "live with it" cost me 100. 5 inches, I knew i had to uncrank the torsion bars a little but not as much as I did. I'm new here, just got a 1999 2 dr Z71. They lifted it a lot more then 3.

I pushed it in to cover the shiny area and then measured how much more it could push in. Now the arms are close to the bump stops and i want to lift it to get more space to the lower control arm. Now, looked at the pinion into the transfer case and there's some up and down play. The question is would the drive shaft ok with the stock 2in blocks, belltech 6400s (also already on) and an add-a-leaf? Its got a rough country lift, looks like about 7" and my local mech says the D/S from the transfer case to the rear end is to extreme. I should be putting these on this weekend so I will update the thread with hopefully a post about no vibrations. I emailed zone offroad, they said a two piece drive shaft is rare and there kit does not include any spacers, but one of there vendors installed a carrier bearing relocation bracket from a f250/350 and it worked. Since the diff will torque up under power, I figure the diff should be 4 degrees up instead of 7. hows my thinking? I measured my angles with my phone, my rear TC is at 2.
Any Constructive suggestions and inputs would be greatly appreciated. I'm curious to see what everyone else has for angles. 7 degrees at the pinion, the total difference is 1.

You must be registered for see images attach. I think I should get adjustable UCA's and slightly adjust the angle prior to fixing the loose bearing/leaks. Seems good there under the above assumption. My friend has a 04 F350 longbed crewcab with a 12" suspension lift. Could someone let me know what there drive line angles are for the 2 piece driveshaft? 11-17-2010 11:59 PM. 09-22-2008 04:34 PM. Did you shim the axle or drop the rear of the trans or??? Looking at the angle on mine and wondering what everyone else has and if there have been any issues with it.
I posted a while back about having a drop bracket made for my carrier bearing after my lift was installed but im still having problems with a shudder /vibration when starting from a stop. U. S. Military - Veteran.
