I thought it was the pitting in the cv cups and when u lower the vehicle you change the geometry of the shaft going into the cups thus resulting in vibration as the bearing is not seated exactly in the worn pitted metal.
yea so in the simplest terms, the angle of the axle to the diff/cv is larger than it is in stock form

and when you put spacers between the axles and the diff, you are decreasing the angle so that it's not as stressful on the cv cup

dude you need to go search for a diagram of the axles/diff. someone made one in paint that shows what youre doing when you lower the car without spacers on the axles.

I posted that because you obviously have not displayed in this thread, my first encounter with you, that you know anything about the car other than you want to slam it. When warned about possible pitfalls to your intentions, you simply shrug it off. Two others here tried to help you, yet you can't seem to grasp what they're saying.

I suggest you spend some time in the Under the Hood forum on this site, search for related topics, and then come up with a game plan.

whoa just chill OP, Skip is a triple-og and that was him being, shall we say, civil. Just do a lil searching in UTH and it will all be revealed to you with diagrams and pictures that are much better than our rhetoric.

I'm sure I'll catch grief about not including the damn links to the forum and the actual threads pertaining to his inquisition.
