I have a vibration that starts around 40mph, I was thinking U-joints but I can feel the vibration in the steering wheel. Shouldn't I be feeling it in the shifter or somewhere towards the rear of the jeep instead of the front?

mine did that but i gotta 2inch sagging lift and it was just mud in my tires cuz they werent balanced right wit all the mud in em,but make sure everything is tight underneath and check bushings

Well I bought this jeep about 6mths ago and it had a worn out set of 31x10.50 MTs on it. I found a sweet deal on a set of used tires and wheels and the vibe is still there.

since u have a lift i reckon since u got 33's on it,do u have a tcase lowrin kit?

bigMo

no it dont have a T-case lowering kit. Will that cause a vibration? this is my first XJ, it has a few issues but I guess that's part of it...lol

I have a t case lowering kit, my truck is a 99 cherokee with a 3.5 inch rusty's lift and 33 inch tires,, and I feel wheel vibration between about 37 and 45 mph,,,, many have told me to check the front end,, as there is a plethora of things that could be loose!

bigMo

mine starts around 40mph and gets worse as I go faster.

u might have death wobble,steerin stabilizer,could help,and maybe a few other things as well but im not sure

bigMo

death wobble? dont sound good...lol hopefully something that can be fixed?

xjmuddigger

the name is just what can happen it doesnt mean it will haha,but its just a violent vibration while drivin,but u might have a mild case of the death wobbles lol

bigMo

my U-joints dont seem to have any slack in them but I did'nt really know what else it could be. thanks for your help.

Sounds to me like you have a ***** stuck somewhere along your steering column, I would check that out if I was you...
