What cheap ways is there to prevent driveline vibrations or any vibrations before they happen? My cherokee is gonna be a daily driver so I really don't want those! By cheap I mean under $150.

 

T-case drops are bout 20 bucks, that's pretty cheap

 

X2 unless you wanna pay $200+ for a sye. Also, make sure your jeep is aligned, and tires balanced.

 

Or just sell it.

 

^ LMFAO

Cherokees are know for "vibrations"

 

You see where it says newbie under desertrunner33? It means I don't know anything haha

 

In all honesty a t-case drop will help, may even make every vibration go away. Just don't get discouraged if you do have some vibrations. Anytime you lift a vehicle you're creating problems with angles. It's really just something you'll learn to deal with and phase out. Learn to turn your radio up for the new "noises" that all of a sudden appear. It's a lifestyle choice

 

dont get it... are you doing a lift? size? sye. no t case dropie...

 

I'm getting the 4.5" lift kit w/x-flex arms and N2.0 shocks brand new from the Rough Country vendor on this website. Probably with 32" tires

 

Vibrations can be caused by anything on an xj. Also no can not see the newbie since on the phone app. It doesn't show that kinda of stuff.

 

if its the complete kit with the tcase drop... "100%" of what you need.. x series comes with t drop, vendor suggested just install it and see how she works.... if it no worky, come back and asky..

 

If you put in new leaf springs or shackles are you more likely to get vibrations?

 

mmm k... so when you lift your jeep it changes the angle of the axels from the pumpkins to the t case... the drop kit is just some blocks to keep it lower to the pumpkins(differentials)... when you do a lift the t-case moves up with the body and your diffs stays in the same place.... i think i need a visual for this one...

 

I understand the angle change and all that stuff. What I'm asking is since when you get a suspension lift you have new shocks that support it but when you get new leaf springs or shackles you don't get new shocks or any new support your car is just higher. SO what I'm saying is that I was wondering if you were more likely to get the driveline vibrations with the suspension lift vs. new leaf springs/shackles

 

No.

Welcome to CF, nice to see another person in inland empire area, I lived down in La Quinta for a few years. Best thing you can do is put the lift on and go from there. If your kit didn't come with a trac bar that would be the first thing I would start with. If you don't plan to offroad it that much, or don't plan to play on rocks a TC drop kit would be a cheap solution if you do get vibes.
