Default vibration after 2" lift

Yesterday I installed a a 2" lift (TF MD springs, +2 shocks and SLS spacers). I took it for a road test today and I am getting a vibration at 30 mph. It is there when I am driving straight. If I move the steering wheel to the left it goes away, to the right it gets louder. The frequency of the vibration is speed dependent. It sounds like it is coming from the rear of the disco.

It is there if I am on or off the gas.

I replaced the front driveshaft universals about 2k miles ago. The rear driveshaft doesn't have any play in it. The rotoflex doesn't have any cracks in it.

What else should I be looking at?

The lug nuts on the LR wheel were not torqued. I torqued the three other wheels not that one. Glad it was a simple fix.

Wow I was about to launch into my tale of woe and give you some expensive suggestions. Glad it was the lugs. Good catch!
