Shaking
My 97 xj shakes at 55- about 70. I've noticed my wheels are missing weights. But wondering if theres another possible reason it shakes. don't feel like spending 60 dollars for wheel balance if its not that.

check all front end steering components.
Ball Joints Track bar Tie Rod ends Front hubs for bad bearings Upper and lower control arm bushings and even the front u-joints Any or all of these can cause the front end to shake. |
okay ill check them in a little bit I know the other day when I was on the interstate the bolt for the track bar fell out so I had a nice time turning left and keeping it straight.

Your XJ might just be getting cold from the wind. It is that time of the year.

The wheel weights will do that but a bad tire will too

Your first instinct wouldn't be that that might have something to do with your shaking? Get a new track bar Make sure it's TIGHT Go drive it for a while RE-CHECK TIGHTNESS Get an alignment If your shaking persists, have your tires balanced. Check your tread wear, if it's uneven it can cause vibrations that you might misinterpret as shaking. Loose wheel bearings, tie rod ends, ball joints can cause it as well. |
