I am not disregarding anything. If you know something please share. I don't like to just do things because somebody said "because I said so".

Yeah, I wanted to know if anyone had any luck with the vibration that occurred during turning at slow speeds. Did friction modifier work? Did you have to replace clutch packs?

The drive line support drop and re grease I think is for the straight line hard acceleration vibration. Not this. That is why I asked for an explanation.

The best thing to do with a chattering LSD rear end is to add a LITTLE modifier (which makes it slipperier) at a time until the chattering is nearly gone. A small bit of chattering will assure you that it will grab when needed opposed to too much modifier which will make it inefficient and a LITTLE chattering won't destroy the clutches. If none of this works of course you will need new clutches.

In addition, the factory did have some driveline angle noises that were remedied by lowering the center support. The OP said additional FM did not help his problem and was looking for additional clues.

Sometimes high-jacking an old thread instead of starting a new one causes some issues.

If adding more and more FM doesn't help and the LSD doesn't work the clutches are shot.

I appreciate your input! Thank you much!
I will got to my drivetrain shop and grab some FM and if that does not work he owes me a favor so he can rebuild my clutch packs.

Do some figure 8's to work it in. There is a church parking lot near me where I go to check alignment, check 4wd, etc. There is a thin line between chattering and slipping so don't add any more than needed.
