My conclusion all along. This seems to be an isolated incident.
It still appears that his rear pinion is nose-down by 4.0º... This is not right. The pinion should never been pointing downwards. I wonder if the people who installed his lift put the front LCA's on the rear? Because this would push the rear axle nose-down because the longer lowers would cause it to cant, just like they're supposed to do on the front.
You also have to consider that the Jeep could have been on an incline/decline. The measurements should only be compared to each other, not necessarily against horizontal, unless the ground It was sitting on was verified to be perfectly horizontal.
Checked mine and I have similar play so I doubt that’s it. All signs seem to point to either an out of balance rear driveshaft or something with the transfer case.
I think I recall him saying that the driveshaft has been replaced. The thing I find odd is that he said he had no trouble until after the lift kit was installed. That just screams something wrong with the install especially since he says he hasn’t done any significant off roading and hasn’t bottomed it out at all.
ridge grapplers being installed tomorrow morning.
I am going to attempt having my new 37" km3s balanced by another shop in hopes of smooth high speeds......they were done by 4 wheel parts with balance beads.
There’s your problem...
Best of luck. I really wanted to keep my km3’s but they just wouldn’t balance out for me.
Did you replace that carrier bearing? It looks like a lot of play in that video...
