Default Vibration after 4.10 install?

I recently had FRPP 4.10's installed, I live about 50 miles from the shop that put them in. On the way home i had no issues and was cruising between 50 and 70. I let the car sit and cool down that night. The next day I took it out in the morning and drove it around for awhile not jumping on it just driving around and then let it cool down again. That night I took it back out and decided to get on it a little bit, and once i hit about 60+ the car started to vibrate so i got off of it and once i got below 60 it stopped. I stepped on it again from about 40 and as soon as i hit 60+ the same thing again. Any ideas on whats causing this to happen?

Sounds to me like an issue with the driveshaft.

Atleast he doesnt have a driveshaft in his sig, so I highly doubt its the driveshaft since the stock 2 piece absorbs ALOT of vibrations. For me its just a bad instalation of the gears.

Could be anything, bring it back and have them look at it. Drive shafts are a very common source of vibration, maybe it wasn't torqued properly etc.

Take it back to them where you had it installed and have them ride in it with you.
