do you guys notice any vibration at low speeds.............is this a drive shaft issue.............i dont notice it at anything above 15 mph. Is this normal or something to be concerned about
 
is the pinion angle right -3 deg i think , changed the diff fluid at rec miles that could be it tooo mine has had the kit on almost 2 years no problems i had a studder when turning very light checked everything was right had dif fluid changed went away
 
i used the x metal kit has blocks tooo so the -3 might not be right for just shackles
 
No vibration here, i bet its your pion sometimes these trucks like a little less than than 3 deg, check that it may take some trial and error but you'll get it.
 
IMO there really shouldn't be any difference whether the truck is lowered a few inches via a kit or from 500 lbs loaded in ther bed. If you tow or carry something will there be a vibration? There shouldn't be. Check the CV bushings , I think someone had a similar problem with them.
