lol Nice stash.

Don't post up like your Jeep is the greatest thing to grace these pages and you wouldn't get criticism.

How old are you? Your rambling paragraph above reminds me of my 12 year old brother's English paper.

NY. That explains it all.

Thank you for learning how to post a picture in the correct orientation.

Quick question guys. 98' xj, 4.0, ax15, np231, chrysler 8.25. While on the highway between the speeds of 53mph and 58mph I get a loud vibration sound. Its like a fast, low pitched rattle that also hums. It also only does it when Im giving it gas and trying to gain speed. Once I pass 58mph or so It goes away and drives smooth as butter. If I recall it has done this since I bought it, it was stock however now has a 3in lift and 31s. It sounds like its coming from the front of the vehicle. I have changed the diff fluid front and rear, t-case, fluid, trans fluid... New u-joints in the rear driveshaft. Could it be front driveshaft u-joints, front axle u-joints, hub bearing, or my failing muffler/cat? Randomly either my muffler or catalytic converter acts up and it sounds like a glasspack. Comes and goes, I tapped them both but I dont get a clunk/rattle. Let me know what you think, thanks guys.

I'd look at things that spin.

Do you feel the vibration in the seat or the steering wheel?

Lol I'm gonna say Lowranges jeep could pull your "BAD@zz jEEP!" up a hill, in 2wd BRO. Not sure why you think your stock jeep is so awesomely better than everyone elses, but i see nothing special.. but who knows maybe you got a 6th sense i dont? However, begin a college student I may be able to explain your behavior. In Psychology, lashing out at others is usually determined to be caused by either an inferiority complex from feeling inadequite, or a confusion of ones sexuality. So im sorry your borderline gay/ feeling small in the bedroom, I truly am. However as far as im concerned, you can take your "supa awesum!" Limited Edition $6500 Blue booked jeep and shove it right up your *** along with those god awful truck nutz you've got hanging from the back of it.

I think he said normal truck nutz are big enough for him, so he's going to go castrate a bull so he can have some huge nuts on his comanche.


Which is a little ****ed up.

When it starts to make the noise I can feel it a little bit in the steering wheel, not bad however. Once it starts to do it I give it more gas so I can get past that mph range that sets it off, the more gas I give it in that mph range the louder it is. It sounds like something is rattling so fast that it starts to hum. Its a pretty low pitched hum. I have also changed my transmission mount but have yet to do the engine mounts which could be original. Brand new tires and I had them balanced twice.

That sounds kinda like an out of balance drive shaft or poor pinion angle but If it's done it from stock and you've replaced the front and rear drive shaft u-joints it should be ok.

Maybe a bent axle shaft or worn u-joint. You should be able to feel that at slower speeds.

Bad pinion bearing causes the same symptoms but would be at a larger MPH range.

This continues with or with the throttle? If you let off the gas it doesn't stop until you slow down?
