    Death wobble is a solid axle issue. Sounds like you have a bad tire or wheel. Maybe front cv

    Best way to learn?

    I believe leaving you rig stock with some slick HT tires and low ground clearance will make you a great driver offroad. If you can get around well in a stock form and not relying on lockers, great tires, lifts bumpers etc. When you do add those things you'll go twice as far as most that started...

    So normally. If your braking and get a shimmy in the steering wheel that's front rotors. If your coming to a stop and the car kinda chugs as it slows that's the rear. Have you been able to put it on jack stands and run it in the air? Dragging brakes should cause excessive heat. So drums would be...

    Another kinda random thought.. are your rear brakes dragging? Heat spots in drums. Or any sort of out of roundness with a constant pressure could cause a shake.. and I know when I was pulling my drums in a sort of fit of anger I bent my backing plate and now on corners it likes to make contact...

    If it was me. I'd pull the lift and put back the stock arms if possible and start from scratch. Throwing money at issues sucks. I've had some pretty bad pinion angles. And what your describing sounds like more than just angle. Vibration, shake some noise all sounds normal. But just coasting...

    I had a duramax that I replaced the rear UJ in because of a shake. Next day same problem. UJ is loose again. Turned out the yoke or whatever you wanna call it was worn out. New yoke no more shake! So you make check that with the new joints. Even cheapo ones should last a little while. Glad you...

    There should be a bushing in the tail shaft of the transmission. Kinda a pain but you could pull the driveshaft and have someone tow you up to speed and see if it's still there lol my guess would be either something in the rear diff. Or trans. Maybe try putting the rear in the air and spinning...

    Normally turning will highlight a bad wheel bearing. Loading side to side. Where accel and decel will highlight DS, transfercase, trans rear end issue. Have you tried pulling the lift out? A 2 inch lift should not make the pinion angle that bad even tho you said it was corrected. . But I know...

    starts in 2nd instead of 1st...transmission???

    Awesome! I've had hell trying to google the right stuff to find info on this! Thank you!

    Pinion bearing? Yoke tight in the 3rd member? DS tight going into the trans? Can you put it on jack stands and run it in the air so you can walk around and look?

    On car lathe. If theres enough run out from the hub even new rotors can cause a shake.

    I'm having the same issue with my 98. Also if i.manually downshift into 2nd or L it wont light up in the dash and definitely isn't downshifting
