TII Diff + 4.3 Gears + Nylon Bushings + PPF Reinforcement = Vibration at high RPMs?
So, I had my torsen diff swapped for a TII along with 4.3 gears, nylon bushings and some reinforcments to the PPF done about 2 weeks ago. I went out and did some 40-140 pulls last night, and I have noticed that my car seems to vibrate more above 7k RPMs. My car pulls strong to 8k, but it just seems like it makes a bit more noise/vibrates more above 7k RPMs. Is this typical? Should I be worried about anything else?

you did not specifically state that the new nylon bushings were differential bushings....
assuming that you did go to nylon diff bushings my opinion is that they are the source of your additional vibration. due to the fact that the PPF connects the engine to the chassis when the durometer of the bushings ischanged, it is similar to changing motor mounts.
i run solid diff mounts and like them alot but they do contribute vibration.
