yeah i think he has a 4x4 but drop shackles shouldn't cause it to shake i would double and triple check everything to make sure its tight. also check your bushings make sure they are in good condition

yes it is a 4x4 and everything is done correct and is tight. its just the slightest vibration. it could be a tire out of balance. im not concerned about that, more of getting the correct angle of the rear.

what im saying is it doesnt change the angle enough to make a vibration its no different with a load in the rear or a drop of 2" i have used my work truck fully loaded by that i mean squatted out which would lower it lower than 2" and no vibration i just cant see that being the reason for your vibration.....better check your tires

thanks for the comments guys.. it wasnt too bad just alot of patience soap/water and a hair dryer... heat the film up with the hair dryer and it helps stretch and get all the creases out.. idk about the heads with the rounded bottoms bc i have the new headlights (08) but all in all it wasnt too bad about 1 1/2 hours a piece.
