up on jackstands, the shake begins at 60, so its telling me its coming from the rear, also, my driver-side axle flange has a wobble to it...are they suppose to wobble a little? it moves more than the passenger side, also my brakes squeek on the driverside on the rear, guessing from the wobble?

mine could be due to the swap but I even had a slight vibe with the 60. I havent gotten around to checking my angles quite yet, Im sure it needs to be shimmed but Im starting to think the guy who I had do my DS didnt balance it.

Hope ya didn't bend an axle! I know someone with a sf 14bolt for the cheap, but it needs to be built.
