Dropped the JK off with a trusted Off road specialist who specializes in Lifted Jeeps.. He's going to help with the mystery!

Is it possible that your control arms moved a little? Set in ground loosen and rock jeep back and forth then re tq bolts and drive. Mine loosen a little of 1000 miles offroad and when I did this shakes went away

The track bar was loose, the tie rod ends were worn, and the drag link was toast.

Lenard will be fixed and ready to go tomorrow!

So none of Those shops found this ?

Yeah thats pretty bad

Napalm

Not one. They played oblivious and said it drives like that due to being lifted..


Really, a 2.5 inch lift?.....

I get the same thing at tire shops. "vibes are impossible to get rid of since your lifted"

I understand that sometimes are things are going to shake. But all the time? And so violently?

A fellow keeper had the same issue. Same fix from the off road shop. Once he got it back the problem came back.

in the end it was his tires. They were 50% worn but balanced fine. He put new tires on and problem went away.

If the shop has some new stock take offs kicking around i would have them test with those after the hardware listed has been done.

If you are close to needing new tires pull the trigger now.

Just found this thread and I'm glad I did. I have the exact issue ( shimmy @ 40mph). Will be checking those parts. Thanks guys.
