Driveline vibration

I put a rough country 6 inch lift on my 2000 jeep XJ. Since I have put the lift on I can't get rid of driveline vibration. I've tried 4,6,and 8 degree shims and I still can't get rid of the vibration. I read on this sight to install a SYE and I know that might help but I have also read on here that sometimes that doesn't stop the vibration. I work 2 jobs and I don't have time to keep fooling with this issue. Is there anyplace in the Greenville-Spartanburg S.C. area that I can take it to to resolve this problem. Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.
 
I can promise you that an SYE will rid you of 98% of your driveline vibrations. Especially at 6 inches of lift. 97+ models really NEED a SYE at any height over 3". I had to install one on my 99 with 3" of lift to get rid of the vibs.

You can purchase a Rugged Ridge SYE for around $160 online. Pick up a stock front driveshaft from an automatic XJ at the LKQ on White Horse road (They're $20). Use the stock front shaft in the rear and you're done.

Clemson 4WD is the only place up that way that I'd trust to do a SYE install if you don't have time to deal with it yourself.
