Unless it's out of timing (phase) as you brought up a while back.

Re: 4 inch suspension nitpicking
 
Damn I should have done that today while I was under it. I'll try that
tomorrow. So if the vibes do go away then the driveshaft would be the
culprit? I noticed in the link Bill posted (thanks Bill!) that the
driveshaft had a rubber boot around it where mine does not. I was
underwater with the thing, and the driveshaft without the boots is splined
and slides into the rest of the shaft, looks like water/mud could have
gotten in there maybe? I can't imagine why I dont have the boot on it. The
shop who installed the cv driveshaft is supposed to be reputable, it's a
nationwide chain. (4wheelparts&more) but this was a while ago.

I shouldn't give up I guess, as long as ya'll have stuff for me to check
I'll keep checking.

What else should I be trying here? Maybe if I can make a big list I'll
spend all day trying things out.

Re: 4 inch suspension nitpicking
 
If it is I'll be pretty mad at the shop who worked on it. What else that
gets me is that before I had the rear upper adjustable control arms, I asked
the last shop guy to check all the angles n stuff, and when I picked it up
after he worked on it I asked if he checked the driveline angles and he said
Yup, everything is fine. Well before I added those control arms the pinion
was not pointing up at the transfer case like it should and I had more vibes
than I do now.

Come to think of it, I also paid him to install a locker, and when I got it
back he had put in a limited slip... I took it back and told him locker, as
in Detroit Locker, and he said oops usually locker means a lsd? I'm not
sure about how much he knows about jeep drivelines so I haven't been back
since.
