slight vibration after PP 1" spring install
Ok, heres the deal.
2000 4Runner SR5 Highlander Sport Edition
4X4 5 Speed (5VZFE engine) (This combination is rare from what I have found, maybe special order )
265/75/R16 Remington Wide Brute A/W on stock sport rims
PP 1" lift(just installed)
I put the PP rear springs on 2 weeks ago and drove the runner for about a week while waiting for the shop to have time to do the front coil overs because I don't trust the AutoZone compressors...
While I was driving with just the rears installed, it was perfect, no problems at all. Now after the front has been installed, I have a slight vibration between 60 and 70 on the FWY. I thought it was from the alignment. I had it aligned after 3 days to allow settling (which it did). I also had tires rotated and balanced. I am wondering if now that I have the full install done if my Driveline angles have been messed up and I am feeling this from the u-joints maybe? Has anyone had this before?

1" certainly isn't gonna mess up your angles. I suspect your rotate and balance is the cause. Who did the balance? Take it back and have them redo it. Also..check you tire tread. make sure nothing it cupped or worn funky

Actually, it ended up being a total of about 2.5 because of the 2000 low rider syndrom....thats why I am suspect of that...and the tires are new...they have about 1k miles on them. They look good, thats the first thing I checked.
