I have a question. I put shackles & pulled blocks on my 4 door. I have the typical vibration. The trans yolk is 6* down & the pinion yolk is at 0* w/ 2* shims. Should i get 4* shims or get a trans spacer?

as for the rear end if the pinion yoke is 0* then what is the rear u-joint at the driveshaft at?
as for the transmission 6* down towards rear end correct? then I would start with washers at the transmission (since it is easier to dial it in that way) if you get the trans to 3* and you still have a vibration then you need to put it back stock and go to the rear end imho
FILLPOT: the 10* up is very bad, you may actually need 6* depending if you put the flip kit in correct. the shortest side of the flip kit goes to the front of the truck.
pics of the angle finder on each part would be awesome. also take the measurements from the drivers side imho.

iamkeniff, thanks bro, going to look at that, put a 4 in yesterday and seems a little better but got to pull the trans spacer out today, I think ur right about the 6, btw put in the new I bolt it's a pain in the *** to get the spacers and the helper bag bracket lined up lol. THANKS!

Man after all this bull **** noticed like you said bro the dam spring perches flip kit what ever are backwards, thanks for the heads up iamkeniff, I'll turn them around tomorrow, now I'm wondering if I even need the dam shims, proably go ahead and put them back in. THANKS!!

iamkeniff, your talking about what the axle sits in correct? The only way this mcagughys will go is one way looks like, you've got a narrower piece on one side and a wider piece on the other, that's on each end of the u shaped piece the axle sits in, I hope this makes since!

Still problems guys, I'm pulling my hair out with this dam thing, this all started really when I had a shop put some 4.10s in and shortened the drive shaft, the pinon angle is good, this is the second set of 4.10s I've had them install, this set are motives, not many choices for the 14 bolt looks like, as bad as it looks I may have to put the 3.42's back in, any ideas? THANKS!
