[QUOTE="kleake, post: 1428307, member: 25987"] Update, It's definitely the carrier that I am feeling, but it's the axle wrap that is causing it. Basically my driveline is right, or at least really close since I don't feel any vibrations while going down the highway. Get on the throttle and there is enough axle wrap that the angle is no longer correct and at slower speeds it's causing a heavy load and shake at the carrier. Removing the spacer helped, and the shims on the axle also helped, but not enough like I suspected. To test, I removed the axle shims and it didn't seem to change much while loaded, but now while empty, if I stomp on the throttle anywhere in 3rd gear or lower I can feel it where I didn't with the shims in place. This means that i'm getting enough wrap to mess up the angles even while empty. I'm thinking maybe my springs are just getting weak allowing the axle wrap, but it seems odd because they do not sag any at all and I carry some pretty good loads. All that said, I have to agree that traction bars are likely the best fix. I still don't agree that they should be needed on a stock suspension truck, while I am not pushing more than stock power (at the time I am having issues),,,, but evidently I do. So,,,, with that said, any recommendations on the best brand? I'm not looking for high dollar, just looking for quality for the price? [/QUOTE]
