Ok so I've been pulling my hair out trying to get rid of this vibration. I adjusted my pinion angle 6 times this week trying to get this vib to go away. I just got some advice from a speed shop and it kinda goes against what I have learned in the past about how my pinion angle should be set so here goes.
Current set up:
19 Degrees (The pinion angle)
0 Degrees (difference between the dshaft and the pinion)
19 Degrees (angle of the dshaft)
12 degrees is the difference between the dshaft and the output
7 degrees (angle of the out put)
12 - 0 = 12 degrees
Total Operating Angle is 12 Degrees currently. The fella said that is wacked and I need to change my angles around so that the total operating angle is less than or equal to 3. Below would be where I would start if this doesn't prove to be a crappy idea.
I guess I should up the angles to.
10 for the rear axle
9 difference
19 for the dshaft
12 different
7 for the output
12 - 9 = 3
Total operating angle would be 3 degrees here and technically should work based on what the dude said. He also said to check and see if the rear axle is in line with the tcase. This is something I am going to check also. I'm going to drop some plumb lines to the garage floor and measure it up to see if I need to adjust my rear track bar.
See I think if I put the rear pinion angle down to 10 degrees that at full droop I may have issues with the ujoint binding up. What do you guys think.
