Did you know... The center section of a drive shaft that utilizes universal joints accelerates and decelerates twice for every full revolution? This change in speed increases the more the u-joints flex and disappears if the drive shaft is straight. In order to counteract this principle, the u-joints need to be welded on in specific positions and the front and rear u-joints need to be at the same angles when in use.
You accomplish the latter by positioning your pinion angle parallel to your transmission output shaft. (If your trans is pointed down 3 degrees, position your pinion angled up 3 degrees.) This is the reason I insist that if you intend to drive your vehicle at multiple ride heights, you MUST build your link bar systems with equal length upper and lower bars. This design will keep your pinion angle constant regardless of vehicle height.
If you have a vibration and you know your u-joints are in good condition, this may be your problem. And if you have a vibration on the freeway only at specific heights, this is very likely your problem.
Bonus note: This is the reason CV axles (constant velocity axles) are named as they are.

It's alive! She's a little jittery but that seems to be a side effect of not enough weight. I'm pretty confident once the motor and body are installed it'll work like butter. No video of it going down because it takes like 2 minutes to air out for the same reason. So far... Extremely happy with the outcome. I'm thinking it's not going to need shocks but still too soon to tell.

Testing out the hydraulic system by hand to triple check travel and clearances before permanently welding the cylinder mount towers. Need to finish up the frame Z, control arms, engine mounts and it'll be ready for final assembly for the trip back home. #MankandieKreations @blackmagichydraulics #ChevyLuv #MiniTruck #Bagged #AirSuspension #Hydraulics #HydraulicSuspension #HydraulicCylinders #PowerBall #SuspensionDesign #SteelFabrication #ChassisFab #Fabrication #Welding #Handmade #GarageFab
