Default Couple of basic questions.

I have an 01 D2 with 285s and a rovertym 3 inch. Great Basin drivelines. I am getting a vibration that comes on rt at 60 miles an hour. It feels like it's coming from the front driveline.... I balanced the tires last week to rule that out. Have any of you had this trouble with GB drivelines. I just bought this and I'm used to Tom woods.

Second question. Where do you all order your shocks from. I just want 10 inch travel ANYTHING at this point. It has 9000s on it that are blown up.

Third. I went on vacation for two weeks and came back to a rough idle and the following codes.
P1300
P0303
P0307
P0301
P0300
P0455

I let it idle and it cleaned rt up.
I know the misfire codes and a couple emission codes. Why would it just clear up and be fine. I was driving it normally before I left.

Thanks all for your help

Condensation. It's not like the CSRA is the Mohave.

Or - Slow coolant leak from head gasket that normally is burned away in more frequent activity. May want to watch coolant like a hawk for loss.

It has been pouring rain every day. The savannah is flooding. I hope that's it. I'm fixing my TB heater next week. Then ill be able to watch coolant better.

8 inch of rain in two hours tonite, plus maybe two more, in a county up stream from me. Corn is looking good this year.

Consider buying a set of OME, extended, shocks, they will fill your needs with the suspension you have.
If you have not done any other mods to the suspension, like the watts linkage, you probably won't get 10"s.
Great Basin make a great drive line. Get your tires balance, if you still have a problem then call Bill at GB and see what he says.
As for the codes, when was it last tuned along with 8 mm silicone wires, how many miles on the engine?

I do not believe that you are the first person on this site to post about a vibration in a Great Basin driveshaft.
you might want to run a search?
