Vibes after 3" of Lift

I just got done doing a 3" lift on my 92 XJ and have some slight vibes around 20mph until 40mph or so. They are nothing horrible but I'm wondering if it is something I should just fix now. Could they lead to further problems if I leave them?

I also hear some noises in the back but I'm thinking that is from the new leaf springs in the back. Will those "break in" over time and be okay?

Thanks
Brent

You can try a transfer case drop or shims on the axle to try and correct the driveshaft angle. No, it won't really hurt it to leave it like it is.

What kinda noises do you hear? My leaf packs are kinda on the squeaky side after the lift.

Thanks. I might try something but I think I'll drive it for a while and see how things settle out and etc...

I think the sounds from the rear springs are just because they're new. They just need some time to get a little scratched up so all those bolts settle in and all of that. I would guess they'll just break in with time.

Thanks for the help though!
