80e swap, circle d 3200 stall and 2 pc drveshaft swap
I just finished my 3200 stalled Jakes 80e swap. I also added a stock 2 pc driveshaft on my 05 crew cab. I've never driven a stalled vehicle before and it takes some getting used to. I'm really liking the 80e way better than the 60e, however, the jakes stage 3 1-2 upshift is way too harsh for daily driving even with the stall. Gonna get it worked out in the tune.
One thing though, I have these bad vibrations on low speed (30 mph) decel. I though it was my 2 pc shaft and u joints out of whack, but because of the stall I think what I'm feeling is my cam (220/220 112) making my truck shake. Lol! Anyone else experience this on a cammed and stalled truck?
All in all I'm very pleased with this 80e swap

I know they are not my brakes because I never touched them during the install. Not sure about the converter though. How can I tell its the converter and what would cause that?

Did you balance the driveshafts? and or look at the flexplate to make sure there are no cracks? This will go a long way in keeping the vibrations down.

Ok guys, here's an update. I did some hp tuners logging, but I honestly don't know what I'm looking for as far as trans stuff. Flex plate is a new Circle D/Reactor flex plate, so I'm pretty sure I can rule that out. I bought a digital angle finder and what I found was my trans and the reared are 8* off. I can space up my trans and then it becomes 4* off and the shudder is not as bad and bearable.
What would you guys do, get a 8* shim for the reared or leave the trans spaced up and a 4* shim for rearend? Both ways I'd still need to adjust carrier bearing higher.
