Important

[Jeepguy91]

Well just took the front drive shaft out and opened up the front diff trying to find where my vibration is coming from. Everything in the diff looks good. No metal flakes or anything. Gonna wait and fill up the diff with new fluid after but then take it for a drive. Hoping it is just the drive shaft. Right around 30mph it was vibrating the Jeep so bad today I was afraid everything was gonna fall off.

Vibrations or death wobble?

Vibrations

 

[RedHeep]

Does it only vibrate at a certain speed or rpm?

Vibrations don't go away when you drive a different speed, they just change frequency.

 

[Jeepguy91]

Up until about 20mph I can't really feel it. Above that it gets really bad until about 50mph then it kinda faids off a bit but I can still feel it.

this ^^^ i've had bad tire vibes on a lot of vechicles...the can feel like the whole jeep is coming apart sometimes

 

[Jeepguy91]

I don't know if its the tires or not. I am back to running stock tires for right now. I would think it would be the tires as well but the vibrations have gotten worse over the past couple days. It still might be those.

Rotate your tires and see if the vibration moves

 

[Jeepguy91]

Well didn't get a chance to rotate tires but did remove drive shaft. Just took it for a drive and the vibes are still there. Jeep is staying home tomorrow so I will tear into it after work.

If it's not the tires, it could be your rear driveshaft.

 

[Jeepguy91]

It seems like its coming from the front somewhere tho. Will also check rear drive shaft tomorrow

Driveshaft. I bet your ujoint is coming apart.

Tire shakes happen above 20

 

[Fore Wheeler]

Do you feel it in your steering wheel?
