I have some vibrations in my front end. I have replaced pads, rotors, calipers, wheel bearings, front and rear drive shaft u-joints. The rig is a 96 XJ with 4.5" lift and 1" TC drop. Only thing i havent replaced is the ujoints on the axle shafts. anyone have any tips on how to get rid of this?

Did you get an alignment? Under what circumstances do the vibrations occur?

Alignment will not cause a vibration under most conditions. Have you had the wheels balanced?

If not wheel balancing, have you checked your tie rod ends?

offroadnut36

Yes it can. If your toe is out or one sides caster is different from the other you will have vibes.

i had same problem and it was the axle u joint on the rear driveshaft, the one that is between the driveshaft and the rear grab your driveshaft and shake it if the u joint moves thats your problem

i said i already replaced all u joints besides ones on the front axle shafts. has brand new tie rod ends all around, and just had an alignment done less than a week ago when tie rods were done. tires were put on like a month ago so they should be balanced. it has the vibration all the time. just from the front end

things to check, alignment, wheel balance, Ball joints, axle U-Joints, track bar, steering stabilizer, shocks, TREs, control arm bushings. Are you on short or stock control arms?

mud_digger

not the alignment, TRE's, steering stab., shocks, or ball joints. im on short arms with drop brackets. i will check the track bar, axle u joints, and possibly tire balance and bushings. what am i looking for in the track bar?
