I would say the first thing to look at is to make sure all the bolts are tight. If thats not it I have heard that you can have vibes the higher you go but I have not had them yet and I have about 4" of lift right now with no vibes until like 80mph which is understandable.

Did you have the vibes before hte shackle lift? If not hten we know it's the shackle lift, if so then that will be eliminated from the possiblities.

i have 3 words for you....... driveline vibes.
your gonna need a slipyoke eliminator. you may be able to adjust your pinion angle but i dont think its gonna help much.
is the vibe in the steering wheel ? or the whole Jeep?

i agree, its most likely driveline vibes. I havea 3.5" suspension lift and i still have slight vibes even with a 1" tcase drop, 1"motormount lift, and rear upper adjustable control arms.
You could try the transfer case drop but that would take away the purpose of the lift you added. A slpiu yoke eliminator and cv driveshaft would be your best bet

The transfercase is bolted to the skid, by lowering the skid you are basicly undoing the lift shackles effect on your driveline (driveshaft and tcase/axle) angles. If you lift a jeep at all expect some driveline vibes, I got nailed by them with a 3" lift on a cherokee with 1" tcase drop. Every jeep is differant.
