    Not sure if anyone answered you because I didn't bother to read the rest of the thread, but yes, more than likely the vibes are coming from your ass end. Check out the DIY carrier bearing drop. That may solve your problem. If not, buy some axle shims and try those. It just comes down to experimentation.

    Does the sound/volume change at all when it's cut back like that?

    Yes, and not for the better. I have a louder muffler in there, so with it aimed down like that it resonates off the ground. Almost sounds a bit farty at times. I've gotten used to it though and barely notice a difference now as opposed to before.

    A good way to test it is have your passenger windows down and drive next to a wall. The way your exhaust sounds when bouncing off that wall is how your exhaust will sound all the time with it aimed down.

    Not sure to be honest. It was whichever one he had in stock. Haven't really looked at it to see if it has a model number in the back. Laying in bed so too lazy to get up to check. Sorry. But definitely looks bad ass. Can't wait to put it on.

    I have the summit racing generic $30 muffler welded in place of the stock one. Sounded GREAT before I chopped the tip. Now it just sounds good.

    Wild Country XTX Sport 32" tires, seeing as my 30" Nitto Crossteks had 60k on them between 2 sets of wheels and 3 different six lug yotas.
    no weights, balance beads, had to drive like a complete jackwagon to pop the bags.

    I removed the front sway bar a few days ago. got that IFS baby flex going on.
