    Ya since theres no heavy clear. You have to use like 4 cans of spray can clear to get a glassy gloss finnish.

    Has anyone here had to do any of the following to the rear of their truck:*bump stops, axle shims or carrier bearing drops?

    So is it kind of like a 50/50 shot if you get the vibes are not when you lift that high? Was it horrible vibes all of the time or just at certain speeds? Is the drop kit hard to install?

    Sorry man, just trying to educate myself.

    I believe everyone gets them. The CB drop kit is very easy to install, took me about 15 min. If Beefed Taco is still backed up on his orders like he was when i ordered, then it will be about a month before you get it.

    The main vibes i was getting is when taking off from a stop the most. Then, at low rpm in any gear. The CB drop pretty much cleared all that up.

    Beefed Taco makes the CB drops custom. Nobody else that i found makes them.

    Shims work for some people, CB drops for others. It seems different for every truck. The CB drop that i used seems to work for most though.

    Is it after a certain height that people get these vibes? How high are you in the back?

    I am looking to lift the back about 4-1/2"...

    The All Pro Expedition leafs give around 4". I had minor vibes when i had a 2" AAL. Worse with 4". I can pretty much guarantee you'll have pretty good vibes at 4 1/2" in the rear.

    Do you feel any kind of shakes in the steering, gas pedal or floor of the truck while driving?

    So you have 5.6" of lift in the front and 4" in the back and no vibes other than alignment issues?

    That is why I am confused. All of the spindle threads that I have been reading haven't been talking of vibe issues which is why I wanted to bring it up here and see how many have had to deal with them. So now we are at 50/50...

    Yes I did, the axle shims actually made it worse. As you can see, every truck seems to have different results.
