    I have a question for the mechanics out there. A friend of mine has an 08 Tacoma TRD DC SB. In the last couple of days he had a leveling kit put on. When he went to pick the truck up it now has a vibration. The vibration is in the rear end and only occurs if he floors the truck. Regular take off it's not there. The shop has shimmed the drive shaft and it took 90% out however it's still there. Any ideas what it might be?? The shop has no idea.

    Chec the pinion angle could be the cause also. Or it happening with the axle wrap

    When he floors it, the axle wraps (rotates to the rear). That causes the angle to the differential extreme, causing vibrations. Best way to fix is to minimize axle wrap. I would recommend traction bars or more mature driving.

    I think the same... I enjoy a little hiphop, mostly the stuff that has a good dance beat, even though I can't dance (white boy syndrome), but he just annoys me too much as a person and I can't listen to his crap.
