Just finished a RE 3.5" lift and getting awful vibrations on acceleration.
My leafs didn't come with either a spacer or shims so I figured I'd start there. I've been reading the guides but I'm not sure how to get the shim I need. I got an electronic level so I could see the angles but I don't get the math.
My TC has a 4.1 degree drop towards the axle.
My Axle has a 9.0 degree up towards the TC.
Does this makes sense or am I measuring it wrong? I used the same measuring points as this http://www.4xshaft.com/tech_slopesVSangles.html
The angle on the axle is vertical 81 pointing up towards the TC so I subtracted that from 90 to get the 9 degree measurement from the axle end.
How do I get from there to what degree shim I need?
