Default Rear Lift Vibration Problem
I own an '07 Toyota Tacoma TRD 4dr, 4x4. Recently installed rear springs from All Pro Off-roads. Lifted the truck only 1.5". However, now there is a significant vibration, seemingly from the drive line. Feels like I have an set of tires w/ a very aggressive tread. Vibration is most noticable at between 20 and 30 mph. All Pro Off-roads advises that I may need to shim (drop) the swing bearing assembly OR shim the rear of the Axle spring "platform" OR both. Experimented with this, but have realized no improvement. Any similar experiences out there?

Default Lift Vibration Problem Solved
Wound up installing a 4 degree axle shim. This cured most of the vibration problem. The following website offered a wealth of information.
