Is that to allow room to shift the angle of the axle to align the u-joints properly? Ever since I switched out my front end diff and bolted things back in, I have had a much harsher vibration with the front shaft turning than before. 1989 reg cab pickup, 22re, 31s, 4.56s, rear ARB, rear OME springs, RS9000s, otherwise stock.
