Goddam, is there a valve we can turn off somewhere?
It hasta be in your drive line based on it happening when accelerating. I remember being on the freeway and when I hit the gas I felt something and it went away when I let off. A few miles later when I got off the freeway my U-Joint exploded. Put a gopro under and record while driving. Maybe you will see something.

Did some more driveline research.
Tcase and pinion are almost parallel and within 2*, but the diff still needs to rotate down. They need to 2* away from each other essentially. So it’s really like they are 4* off.
I is so smart

and as @J Mack said, I am #overlandAF

Photo shoot for insurance company.
Washed it for the first time in a long long time. It had been sitting for years in CA before me.

You should send them one of your super flexy drainage ditch photos to show them how hardcore you are!
Insurance companies are just like chicks they really dig the super hardcore overland guys.

Adjustable rear uppers rotated the pinion down and she’s good to go! Whoo hoooo!
I drove it to a get together last night and a guy pointed to a #overlandAF new Jeep and then the FlyingPig and said “That’s not a knife. THATS a knife”

The FJ55 will always rule over new Jeeps in coolness and exotic factor, but the 4 door JK’s are a pretty sweet platform with a huge aftermarket, making them a pretty decent choice for a newer wheeler.
Part of the inspiration for the build I’m doing, besides all the great builds on this forum, is to make something that stands out from that JK crowd, on a vintage platform that was built rather than bought.

Whenever I head home and pass through Alabama, I have to set my clock 100 years forward when I cross back over into my state.
