I don't think it's pinion angle related, as stock wranglers are also having the issue.A few on this forum have had their factory shafts replaced without any luck. I replaced my factory shaft with an aftermarket double cardan shaft and it had no effect on thrumming either. But, thrumming is completely gone when driving in 4hi with the rear driveshaft removed, so it's not the rear shaft but happens when the rear shaft is installed... if that makes sense.
I wonder if it's the rear output on the transfer case or possibly the rear differential.
Supposedly, the JL Wrangler underwent 3.9 million miles of testing during development. Yet somehow, the Engineers never noticed this thrumming issue, the door corrosion problems, the loose steering, or the clutch and LSDs self-destructing.
