I just installed a 3 inch lift kit on my Fronttier Pro-4X. It was a 3 inch
polyurethane spacer on the front struts and lift blocks below the rear
leaf springs and longer shocks. Pretty straight forward. However, now
when I drive I notice a small vibration at slower speed's. It seems to go
away at speeds over 40. If you've ever had too large of tires on a
vehicle, you would notice a rubbing sound when you make a sharp
turn. That's what it sounds and feels like but not quite as rough. I
double checked all the connections and everything looks good. Not
sure what might have caused this. Any ideas to point me in the right
direction would be appreciated.

The problem was the rear lift blocks. They are tapered...one end is
about 1/2 inch taller than the other. Tallest end must be toward the
rear. Mine were toward the front. I turned them around and the
vibration disappeared. Found the solution on YouTube.
