driveline vibration solution

stumped
no, you shouldn't. are you sure that it's still leaking even after replacing the seal? could it just be residual gear oil that you are seeing. the only thing that would make the leak occur that i can think of is drive line vibrations and if you haven't addressed your control arms up front, it shouldn't be vibrating.

glad to hear i don't need upper control arms in the front too!

As WOL said, you can give David @ Northridge a call - he's a really good guy (actually who I ordered my driveshaft from) and is very active on the forum. But, I actually picked up my FT arms locally (Screamin' Lizard) as I drive by them everyday going to work. In agreement with what WOL said, I had problems w/ my JE Reels simply 'cause I didn't know I would need to adjust for them, so it's not fair to try to make this particular company look bad because of my (and others) lack of insight (i.e. ignorance). I've had 0 (zero) problems with driveline vibrations since installing the adj upper arms. Also - I don't know this for a fact - but I don't think this is simply limited to the 'Reels...I think any double cardin shaft will require control arm adjustment.
