Hayes,
I strongly think that you are feeling the front driveline vibrate; I don't think I ever ran it in 4wd at higher speeds, only 40mphish and below.
The front driveline is setup properly at the transfer case (CV), and within 2 degrees at the front axle end; keeping this in mind, it will probably exhibit some vibration at high speeds in 4wd. Having said that, I'm not sure why you would ever want to run at 40+mph in 4wd anyway; any condition that necessitates that traction would preclude high speeds.
Rear driveline is set up 1* below center, but the antiwrap bar does not allow much flex upwards (hence, the very small amount of angle downwards).
Power steering; you probably boiled the fluid. I'd just flush it, those AGR's are fairly tough, i doubt you cooked the pump. Probably just air in the lines.
I got your message tonight; I'm out of town all week in CA, so I'm not too reachable. But what happened????? What the heck did discount tire do to it?
