would double cardan joints eliminate the vibrations though ?
That's one of the reasons why guys with Shorties and big lifts have to fit a double cardan joint.

I thought it was because having two joints makes it stronger due to less angle not the vibrations
Certainly. Reducing the operating angle using the double Cardan relieves the drive train allot but is also reduces the vibration they get through it.
I'm not sure that a better video could be produced to explain it. I was not aware of the oscillating nature of the I is when they are out of sinc. I did have a bit if vibration through the. GQ and adjusted the upper trailing arms to increase the pinion angle to match the gear box end and it made a huge difference. I am going to check whether the unis are lined up and sort that out too.

Excellent video. Don't have this issue with CV's.
IMO and should be taken with a grain of salt.
