Again your driveshaft would not become "unbalanced" just by lifting it
You can remove the vibration dampner from the rear fairly easy, just bolts on
BUT if you do be careful since its very heavy
No adjustment really
Do you have it sitting level now or is the rear higher ?
Measure from the pinch weld front and rear to see
If higher lower the rear some to see if that helps

Thanks Tom... I'll take of the dampener and give it a shot

Nope my front is still at 23 and the rear is at 22.5 with the extra iso's.

Just got back from a trip with my rear end loaded down to 19.5" ... no vibrations at all on the ride home :juggle:
