Did the works to my transmission. Replaced front and rear seals, replaced the cooler lie quick disconnects, changed the filter, and painted the pan engine red.

My dog always chills in the Jeep when I'm out there working, it's good to have a supervisor...

Not as weird as you think. I installed a 2" BB on my 90 and it caused a horrible driveshaft vibration. I installed a 1" t/c drop which fortunately fixed the problem, since a SYE and new driveshaft aren't in my budget right now.

A lot of times it's just the u joints being bad. They get so used to driving at low angles that they develop bad spots, or the grease dries out. You'd be surprised how "well" a u-joint performs at low angles when it's gone bad. I had a 3" aal on my 89, which started vibrating. Changed the joints and it was fine. Then I got full leaf packs with shims and it was fine. I put in New motor mounts and a new transmission mount and suddenly I had vibes again. That's when I had to do at case drop.
