Now that I am thinking about it, I could feel a little bit of that as soon
as I changed from smaller tyres to my current ones. Could it be because of
the sidewall flexing under weight and torque? Its good to know that its
not related to the driveline.

You can't really go around a bend quickly or sharply in a TJ, especially
with a lift...

But the problem is when starting off on a corner.

I do have a limited slip in the back. It is all coming together now.
Taller tyres all around, limited slip in the back, front tyres in a bind on
a hard surface, things start having fun with each other. As long as my
driveshaft and other driveline components are not ready to punch a hole
through the floor board or rip themselves to pieces, I can live with this
form of an occasional shake (rather wobble).

Thanks

I can live with that. It is just that I had done the lift and was testing
all shakes and wobbles. I have managed to eliminate all others, except for
this one. My question was geared primarily to get a bit of assurance that
none of the major components are in immediate danger of catastrophic
failure due to inappropriate angles or binding.

I'll let the suspension settle a bit and see how things go from here.
