Transmission does not engage in any position!!!

I re measured it the right way and found it to be about .045". Which is within spec.

Hope you start feeling better. Thanks again for your help.
 
It's alive and shifting great. What is the chance that a torque converter can cause drive-line vibrations?
 
Well how about that? That's very good. I don't know about your converter balance question. Lots of things can cause driveline vibration including the shaft itself, plus worn u-joints, too much play in the t-case output shaft, loose or failed t-case/x-mission mounts, loose axle u-bolts, a broken shackle...the list goes on from there.

Thanks scoutboy. The u-joints barely have any miles them; tranny mount is brand new from ihon; u-bolts are good and tight; shackles are brand new from ihon; tires balanced.

Still need to check balance of drive shaft; and do I have to drop the t-case to check the output shaft end-play?
 
You can get a good enough idea just by grabbing the shaft at the t-case end and wiggling up/down and side to side. It shouldn't be sloppy in any direction. Too much movement will be obvious. Also, a propeller shaft with u-joints out of phase will create significant vibration. What I mean by that is, on either end of the shaft, there are two joints retained by springs leaving two open that rest in the yoke cradles on either end. If you take the prop shaft out an lay it on the ground, both spring-retained ends should be parallel. This is the same way it needs to be installed. I'm assuming you have it this way already, but something to check.
