I am pretty sure that most ppl here that rip off their driveshafts is due to pinon angle. When I 1st did my drop, it would slightly vibrate at 40mph. After the pinon shims, it was perfect.. and actually felt faster.

mine doesn't vibrate with 2" out back either. are you sure the pinion angle is that far off. I would think you could go to at least 4" before it became a problem.
