Yup, but ever so slight. Thanks for the suggestion, I am going to try lowering the carrier bearing. I blamed the tapered rear blocks for throwing of the drivline geometry - I am not a fan of blocks, but small ones are ok IMO if the springs are relatively stout. I do not agree with tapered blocks as they change the driveline angles that are designed in by the OEM and can cause vibration in some cases. Chances are the vibration they cause is actually there in every case. The operator may not feel it, but the u-joints do.
Mine is so slight I have simply been too lazy to correct it. I was going to swap for non-tapered blocks, but lowering the carrier is much easier if it will solve the issue. A full inch is suggested?
