Sound like the pinion angle may be off. Maybe adding some pinion shims will
help. Be careful not to accelerate to fast, you may break the yoke and
driveshaft if the angle is seriously off. Trust me, it has happened to me
after a shop installed my airbags the WRONG way.

Subject: DML: Lowering ?s:
Hey All. I recently dropped my 2 wheel Dak 3 in. in the rear and it looks
and
rides great but here's the problem, since I dropped it it now has a shudder
when I accelerate from a dead stop. If I'm rolling it's not as bad but is
still there. I have a 1 legger 3.55 rearend. ? is could the drivetrain
geometry have changed enough to cause this? What should I be looking for,
measuring or changing ? Has anyone else on the list that has lowered their
trucks experienced this? I used 3 in. Blocks and longer U bolts, checked it
all and torqued all the bolts. I haven't driven it enough to do any damage
but it does have me concerned.
Thanks
Shawn
