I have a 94 b4000 4x4. I swapped in a 3L73 8.8 from a mid 90's ranger to upgrade from 3.27's and an open diff. Around the same time, I had replaced the transmission and transfer case as well as swapped in a one-piece driveline. The truck has a 4 inch lift, blocks in the rear. With that new axle in, I have a terrible shake. I won't even call it a vibration because it is so bad. My shifter moves back and forth, it's like driving on a washboard. Since this, I have rebuilt the transfer case, bearing and seal kit, had the driveline balanced, went to 33's and had them balanced. With the rear end on jackstands and running in gear, I can see and feel the driveline wobbling, so I swapped in another driveline only to have the same effect. I can see the passanger side brake drum is bent and can hear it scrape the brake shoe with every turn. The rear wheel bearings have minimal play in them, about the same for each side. I can't see the brake drum having that large of an effect, but it is next on my list as it needs to be replaced regardless. So, any ideas or direction would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance,
