Seen a lot of ppl offering up complaints about the vibration, but not to specific. I installed the ES one, with the steel shim, unmodified. I now have a pretty substantial vibration, like tires out of balance, at around 2300rpms, makes the empty pass seat shake nicely, but worried about the effects it may have on trans shafts, u joints etc.. I seen it recommended to:

A) Shim the x-member down some to make up the difference in height which would bring the u joints back into alignment.

B) Remove the shim, and trim to stops.

Has anyone actually looked into this issue to see which really needs to be done? If its only a vibration thing, and not out of alignment, then !Shim and trim stops would be accurate, but then again, ES Should stop making them like that. So I am leaning towards the shimming of the X-member to align the u joints, but havent looked around to see than angles.

Thanks.

Next up is a Tubular K Member, Poly Motor Mounts and new shortblock!

Mine has about 10000 miles on it, and after about 5000, the vibration is very reduced. Either I'm used to it now, or it seems to be lessening with time.
