Front or rear driveshaft?
I have a FT 3in lift on my 2 dr jk with 37s...
My front shaft has the ripped boot..
The rear looks fine but I know it prob won't last forever..
It feels like maybe one is causing a little vibration..
Which one usually vibrates???

Likelly your front driveshaft with the torn boot is vibrating. It is now slightly out of balance.

I have a 2.5" with 35's and after 5 years my rear drive shaft bit the dust. Replaced it with a teraflex shaft now i feel like its slower? Can this happen or am i imagining it?
And i would replace the rear if u have the $$$. It will eventually break.
