I've got a 2004 grand Cherokee limited all wheel drive what it will do it start to vibrate,like a bad u joint but there not bad the steering will shake a little bit round 60. It will also sound like a set of rumble strips every now and then. Steering will pull a little left when I hit a puddle that I think could be ball joints possibly going bad. Any input would be helpful.

 

Have the tires inspected and balanced. Pulling while going through a puddle is pretty normal depending on how deep the puddle is.

I have a similar Gremlin.

 

When I bought mine I had the same problem. Mine has a long travel kit on it and I thought u-joints but they were good. What I found was this. I forgot what they are called but where front and rear drive shafts meet the transfer case there are actually two u joints close together in a device that helps take the stress off the angle of drive shafts on lifted rides. This thing actually has a ball and pin type guide in the middle of it that has to be greased with a needle type greaser. It will wear out and on mine at 60 mph it felt like something was about to explode. I found someone to rebuild those and it took all the vibration out and it drove sweet after that. Hope that helps.

 

That's called a double-carden joint and it makes sense.

 

Is it stock height or lifted? Also are all the tires the same brand, size, and same amount of tread wear?

Problem solved it was the transfer case going out. Thanks for all the sound advise though
