I've had that vibration for almost 2 years and still couldn't figure it out gonna check the u joints as ive replaced front end parts as i thought it was a tire problem but driving shaft is the other thing to check
Well, it really depends on which parts you are talking about. I use to use Autozone almost exclusively because they had a lifetime warranty... only problem was, I was changing the same part over and over every couple of months. Now I mostly use Oreilley's for standard parts and they have lifetime warranties on most items and the parts are better quality. For real important stuff I use NAPA.
Ticonderoga Dixon I know this is probably sarcasm but just in case: the U in the name comes from the yoke, and the actual bearing/x-shaped piece is called the spider
i recently bought my first jeep,its a WJ with the 4.0 inline 6 ,and i hav to say your videos are great.im really falling in love with jeeps in general and i use to be a tuner fan.i had a modified Nissan altima with the ka24de and the motor blew.but im happy cuz now i found a new vehicle with tons of potential and loads of info available from guys like you.thanks bleepin jeep 😊👍🏻
I actually watched your last video like 2 weeks weeks ago, I had a click while turning right, I had MAYBE a hair of play in my driverside U-joint, replaced it and now no more click! Great Vid man. Btw I just used a BFH and a large socket on the ground to pop that sucker out, then used a vise to press them in. Worked fine, only took about 1-2 hours
well, there should be a bit of slop in your ring a pinion, this is called backlash. It shouldn't bee too much, but just right. to check it out further remove the driveshaft so you can see if it is in fact coming from the ring an pinion.
Thank you for this video and the thorough explanation of the symptoms. I was about to replace the ball joints and control arms but I have the clunk when I initially press the gas and ALOT of vibration at speed. You saved me a ton!
I love your pink helmet!!!! I didn't know what that sound was on our Chevy trailblazer but you have helped me to better understand the problem with my vehicle and how to fix it!!!! Thank you so much, you explain things about vehicles very well!!!!
First time to go out in a mopar product , I have a 01 and 02 dodge Ram 1500 both 4 doors . , the 91 nissan hard body pickup would shimmy when it’s u joint went out
I like watching videos like this for educational purposes. You're the only channel I've found that actually has quality content for a 4x4 vehicle... But I recently bought a f150 with a 10 inch lift from a friend. It was to good of a deal to pass up, and after driving a 2wd s10 for 5 years, I was ready for a change. I am fully aware of the potential money pit, but it would be cool to see a little more videos related to trucks a little more. If you can't, then videos like this are just as good.
When the u-joints are working correctly the drive shaft spins in perfect balance. When the u-joint has failed, the rotating drive shaft will slip to one side due to the centrifugal force of the rotating mass, causing an imbalance, resulting in the vibration that you would be feeling. The bad u-joint will not cause the drive shaft to bounce back and forth while spinning at driving speed.
ya its either the NSS neutral safety switch... or the shift lever cable is a tad stretched and needs adjustment. You can adjust it on the driver side of the transmission with a little clip, then slide it one way or the other and try again.
that sucks man! I'm not sure... I guess they just wanted you to replace them every so often anyway. The greasable ones only work better if you keep em greased though so make sure to do it regularly.
Not sure what it means for a tire to fold under you but... 1st make sure you are not in 4wd. 2nd Did the previous owner have a locker in the front axle?
True, I almost forgot what a stock driveshaft looks like. And I wasn't counting the double cardans but I guess I could have... I'll make a note on the video.
sounds more like a brake issue but hard to tell from here. check that your dust shield isnt bent. could be many things but look for metal to metal contact somewhere.
Your videos are all awesome. As a new jeeper I really like how you show every step of the process with detailed explanations of what and why you are doing what you are doing. The videos are fun to watch too because of your off kilter humor. I can't say thanks enough for all of the info.
This was a a great video. Clear and understandable. Heard the noise and had the service folk lubricate the joints. No noise for about a month, now I hear the noise again in Reverse. I had no idea the parts are that inexpensive, I will get them to replace. Thanks.
not necessarily, I would think the u-joints would be binding in either direction as they should be angled the same whether turned left or right. The clunk I would assume would be from the track bar or a loose steering box, or possibly a REally bad tie rod end.
well it should have a pit of rotational play... that is the slop between your ring and pinion gears. But not vertical or horizontal play as I described in the video.
thanks bleeping jeep, my driveshaft fell off out of the front when i hit a hard bump, i noticed the front yoke nut inside was completely off hence why it couldof fell off so easily, but now i have a vibration after putting it back together, wasnt sure if it was a bent driveshaft or what, now at least i can check my u joints first because no visual bend in my driveshaft, and its a 87 and dont want to fork out a ton of money!
Ya that sucks when that happens. you would think that they would make the little tabs on the side of the yolk much bigger and stronger... I'm not sure why they don't??
I wouldnt assume the driveshaft u-joint. Usually you will get a bad vibration from that but thats about it. I would think maybe the ring and pinion or possibly the brakes have come apart.
you are amazing man... very professional very straight forward ... I was scared to death from the noise i heard in my JK i though it was something to do with my front diff did a bit of research and got here ... and BAM heard the exact noise turned out it's my front drive shaft U joint ... thanks again
When driving down the road, in 2WD, will you know if your front Ujoint is bad? (I ask because it wouldn't be in use while in 2WD). Love the channel! Thanks!
Awesome Barbie helmet. I can't even get the grease gun to fit into the u-joints on my GMC Yukon. I just had them replaced both brand new and the guy didn't grease them. It was a terrible experience I helped him pounding for 2 or 3 hours. And inner clips that were rusted shut.
kicking U joints are primarily found on straight line drive like drive shafts. On steering components such as the front ends of jeeps, if the bearings are gone you will notice binding and wheel hop on turning on dry pavement.
Redish rust powder around the 4 rubber sels are another sign. And many times a bad one with dried grease wont show loose moovement or anything, but after greasing and driveing it for a few days it will get noticeably loose.
Are your lug nuts on tight? Also, it could be that if your 4wd selector is jammed up it could be in 4wd and that wouldnt be good. sometimes the linkage can get messed up under the vehicle and your selector wont show the right thing.
This was a very informative video, and I like the little bit of humor thrown in. I've read on other sites how to check for bad u-joints, but having a visual makes it a lot easier to understand now. I have a '96 f-150 that I suspect has a bad u-joint, but I'm thinking I may have a bad tie-rod end also. A few years ago, the driveshaft actually fell out of my truck. Luckily, I was going slow when it happened, but the part that the u-joint attaches to was broken or something. So I had to get another shaft, in addition to the new u-joint. I'm going to look it over this time and try to avoid a repeat.
I've had a similar problem twice. First with my original front axel assembly and once on my second after replacing the entire assembly because a bomb went off inside my diff. The pop happens in my driveway over pot holes. And when turn wheel to the limit in either direction. On my first assembly I replaced all my tie rod ends, both my front axel U joints, sway bar bushings and links before I figured was literally just 1 bad lower ball joint.
Hello, did you ever fix the yoke behind the u-joint? If so, I believe I have the same problem, do you have a video of that or could you post a video of that repair?
Very helpful, I was trying to pin point the problem on my Tacoma, getting a lot of squeaking from the rear when in reverse as well as when I've been driving for a while. Vibrations started yesterday when I would accelerate. Am I on the right track?
my stepdad just got a 94 ranger and he was trying to explain to me what the u joints were because the front ones froze up indefinitely, but the way he was trying to explain it to me wasnt as clear until i saw what they looked like. cant wait until thats fixed so i can go wheeling for the first time lol
your right its the only way ive found too. I ordered a farm style 7,000 lb bumper jack last week should be here tomorrow and it should lift it easier and quicker but I really dont know yet. My 75 camaro came factory with one and it was pretty sweet so figured id try it with jeep. It said in description it was offroad jack have you ever used these style jacks?
Sometimes when you spin the wheel you can't see the slip in the axle u joints. You can also rotate the drive shaft with your hand while the Jeep is on the ground, and see the movement in the u joint that way.
Heh lol you do the jack n wood setup the exact same way I do on my front axle. Now I don't think I'm so dumb for doing it. Great video thanks. I'm using your videos to help me get my 2000 xj all fixed up
I have a 1999 Cherokee limited xj. My transfer case is making a noise ( like the chain is loose) still shifts into 4 wheel. Should I by new or rebuild the one I have? I am new to this world of jeeps and any help would be appreciated. I like your videos, no bs and really helpful
Thanks a lot for this video, was great help....saved my bucks. I just wanted to know the solution to yet another problem.....how to fix the jerks from gear shifts for automatic transmission, 1999 jeep cherokee
Thanks for the awesome instructional video. I suspect one of my U-joints is starting to fail. Now I know what to inspect the weekend. Thanks for posting.
Similar play in my 96 rear end. U joints appear to be fine. With rear wheels in the air, when spinning tire back and forth I sense a "delay" of some sort. A hard catch I when changing direction. Hard for me to be sure if it is central at the diff or originates somewhere further up the driveline.
I ended up almost being able to pull the u joint apart by hand mine was so damaged. Great video though will help diagnostics in the future thanks. Only note would be to flip the camera next time, its disorienting watching upside down
Is it dangerous to the car to drive it under the speed that the vibrations occur? My mechanic can't fix it until next week and I don't want to make my car worse. I'm convinced it's the drive shaft U- Joint after watching your video. I'm planning on not moving the car anywhere until I drive it to the mechanic under the speed where the vibration starts (around 35 mph) about ten miles from my place. Also, what part are you referencing to as the "yoke"? Could the failing front drive shaft U Joint cause a transmission fluid leak?
what is a topaz?? ahh, I just looked it up... it could be but that car is going to be a whole different ballgame than a solid axle u-joint replacement.
Would bad U joints cause a vibrating while decelerating? It feels like it's right below me and it is almost like a humming noise whenever I release the gas.
Hey Very good content about u-joints and your wacky silly ending was just enough to make me chuckle out loud ! Andrew in Santa Fe with a front end shimmy !
I have a steel spacer I'm gonna replace the aluminum junk one but I don't know if the box is loose or not, hadn't really checked it out when running my new brake line. So why am I getting a binding/rubbing feel when only locked to the left? Also, I think my drag bar may be bent maybe...you have the part number handy to replace the steering bars and tie rods?
Mine doesnt vibrate and isnt loose but there's grease sprayed everywhere like one of the bearings exploded and it sounds like a bad bearing. It sounds terrible when I accelerate from a stop. Kind of weird symptoms. I changed a bunch of pulleys out on the engine thinking it was those. It did need it anyway but the sound didnt go away. I'll replace this next as soon as it stops snowing!
I'm new to the world of XJ...and dude, you're saving my bank balance here!
thanks for finding us!
Rudi Geyser same here
Thanks for mature language and not cussing up a storm. You're awesome.
Shithead
Your god damn right
damn fucking a str8 bastards
Shit cock asss
Buncha poopheads!
Holy cow these are the sounds I've been hearing for months,now I know what it is. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for not having a 5min long intro like a fucking rap song, oh, and for explaining things clearly.
Brian M what’s wrong with rap music?
I agree, just straight to business.
I like this guy he knows his shit
This guys comedic genius is so underrated. He would put SNL out of business in one revolution of a 38 inch mud tire.
Stay gold.
dnl machine hell yeah he would
Sounds like the church lady
I've had that vibration for almost 2 years and still couldn't figure it out gonna check the u joints as ive replaced front end parts as i thought it was a tire problem but driving shaft is the other thing to check
really appreciate your site and the good clean language you use. Has helped greatly to keep my 93 cherokee country in top shape.Thanks again

absolutely the best diy jeep videos. thank you for what you do!
It's just not right how an X-shaped object is called a U-joint.
Ticonderoga Dixon I know this is probably sarcasm but just in case: the U in the name comes from the yoke, and the actual bearing/x-shaped piece is called the spider
@@97skinnyboyswag let's see 'universal' starts with a 'u' and it's a "universal joint" hmmm.....why WOULD it be called u-joint????
A cross joint is something you smoke soooo
Nothing makes sense in the English dictionary lol
2 U's connect to the joint opposite of each other
i recently bought my first jeep,its a WJ with the 4.0 inline 6 ,and i hav to say your videos are great.im really falling in love with jeeps in general and i use to be a tuner fan.i had a modified Nissan altima with the ka24de and the motor blew.but im happy cuz now i found a new vehicle with tons of potential and loads of info available from guys like you.thanks bleepin jeep 😊👍🏻

get it back man, sadface;(
Yeah I miss it...
Justin Bingham sell ya mine
I love your pink helmet!!!! I didn't know what that sound was on our Chevy trailblazer but you have helped me to better understand the problem with my vehicle and how to fix it!!!! Thank you so much, you explain things about vehicles very well!!!!
Glad to find one of your old videos on this feels terrible when u joints go out in a quad cab truck especially when it’s just rwd
First time to go out in a mopar product , I have a 01 and 02 dodge Ram 1500 both 4 doors . , the 91 nissan hard body pickup would shimmy when it’s u joint went out
Are you kidding me? This is one great video. The author explains things well. He is easy to understand.

Hello neighbor.
Hai yaa loose joint no good ,😨🤔
That is one of the most spot on descriptions ever. He needs a cardigan!
Your comment showed before he started talking, and you absolutely nailed it. So funny 😂
Hahahahaha

thank you!! been having really bad vibrations at around 60-65 mph here lately, now just gotta go check it tomorrow (92 Cherokee Laredo)

You rock! THanks for the help. I was driving to work this morning in 4 high and I think I may have a uJoint out. I will check when I get home.
you are amazing man... very professional very straight forward ... I was scared to death from the noise i heard in my JK i though it was something to do with my front diff did a bit of research and got here ... and BAM heard the exact noise turned out it's my front drive shaft U joint ... thanks again
one of the best channels. straight to the point no bs...
some of the older jeeps had smaller u-joints... they can be swapped out with the newer year shafts without issue.
probably one of the best explanations I have seen yet. Great presentation,
Great video, not sure if this is even my problem yet but now I know what to check for general maintenance as well!
thanks and keep watchin!
When driving down the road, in 2WD, will you know if your front Ujoint is bad? (I ask because it wouldn't be in use while in 2WD).
Love the channel! Thanks!
Don't even own a jeep, but subscribed after this. Learned a lot in a very short time. Thanks for the vid dude!
Awesome Barbie helmet.
I can't even get the grease gun to fit into the u-joints on my GMC Yukon. I just had them replaced both brand new and the guy didn't grease them.
It was a terrible experience I helped him pounding for 2 or 3 hours. And inner clips that were rusted shut.
no prob, thanks for watching anyway, some of these videos can cross multiple makes.
Can you talk? Vs texting? Having similar noise...wondering if its possible signs of tcase fluid is low?
Thank you for your time in putting this video together and sharing this information with us. This clarified quite a few things for me. Cheers
kicking U joints are primarily found on straight line drive like drive shafts. On steering components such as the front ends of jeeps, if the bearings are gone you will notice binding and wheel hop on turning on dry pavement.

😂😂😂
Redish rust powder around the 4 rubber sels are another sign. And many times a bad one with dried grease wont show loose moovement or anything, but after greasing and driveing it for a few days it will get noticeably loose.
And that 4th little bearing cap went 'wee, wee, wee, all the way home!'
LOL. Great video
Are your lug nuts on tight? Also, it could be that if your 4wd selector is jammed up it could be in 4wd and that wouldnt be good. sometimes the linkage can get messed up under the vehicle and your selector wont show the right thing.

Good clear video. I have a vibration under my Suzuki and suspect one of the UJ's have gone on the front prop. This has helped me confirm it :-)

Very helpful, I was trying to pin point the problem on my Tacoma, getting a lot of squeaking from the rear when in reverse as well as when I've been driving for a while. Vibrations started yesterday when I would accelerate. Am I on the right track?
If you dont mind waiting for mail then get Spicer U-joints
Nothing has changed. Ordered 4 spicers for my Jeep tj last week, they won’t be here till next week.
my stepdad just got a 94 ranger and he was trying to explain to me what the u joints were because the front ones froze up indefinitely, but the way he was trying to explain it to me wasnt as clear until i saw what they looked like. cant wait until thats fixed so i can go wheeling for the first time lol
Hey what kind on rear drive shaft is that? Great video, learn a lot & have fun watching them.
great video; thanks for giving me some ideas on the vibration on my 2010 Ranger.
Thanks for your input. I checked and now im pretty sure its the pinion... Its a Dana 35, time to swap a F8.8
your right its the only way ive found too. I ordered a farm style 7,000 lb bumper jack last week should be here tomorrow and it should lift it easier and quicker but I really dont know yet. My 75 camaro came factory with one and it was pretty sweet so figured id try it with jeep. It said in description it was offroad jack have you ever used these style jacks?
sounds like it could be a bad steering gear box. Ive got some videos on those so check em out.
Sometimes when you spin the wheel you can't see the slip in the axle u joints. You can also rotate the drive shaft with your hand while the Jeep is on the ground, and see the movement in the u joint that way.
awesome, glad I could help
Heh lol you do the jack n wood setup the exact same way I do on my front axle. Now I don't think I'm so dumb for doing it. Great video thanks. I'm using your videos to help me get my 2000 xj all fixed up
The Barbie helmet got my sub, lol
Nice helmet! Thank you for helping me diagnose my Jeep problem.
The Tee store is now live on my bleepinjeep website!
only running 235/75/15's....wasn't doing any of this couple months ago when I bought the jeep but now it does.
cool, thanks for watching! Ya, Im going to make a ujoint replacement with a hammer video next!
Nice tutorial on diagnosing a bad U joint.
I have a 1999 Cherokee limited xj. My transfer case is making a noise ( like the chain is loose) still shifts into 4 wheel.
Should I by new or rebuild the one I have? I am new to this world of jeeps and any help would be appreciated.
I like your videos, no bs and really helpful
Thanks a lot for this video, was great help....saved my bucks. I just wanted to know the solution to yet another problem.....how to fix the jerks from gear shifts for automatic transmission, 1999 jeep cherokee
great video bro thanks i was about to replace all of them for nothing, i rather check em now than to replace abuncha crap i dont need!!!
Thanks for the awesome instructional video. I suspect one of my U-joints is starting to fail. Now I know what to inspect the weekend. Thanks for posting.
are you talking about a hi-lift jack?
sounds like your tire is rubbing something. spray everything black and whatever is shiny the next day is the culprit.
do you really drive that jeep or its just for maintenance training ;)
Similar play in my 96 rear end. U joints appear to be fine. With rear wheels in the air, when spinning tire back and forth I sense a "delay" of some sort. A hard catch I when changing direction. Hard for me to be sure if it is central at the diff or originates somewhere further up the driveline.
I ended up almost being able to pull the u joint apart by hand mine was so damaged. Great video though will help diagnostics in the future thanks. Only note would be to flip the camera next time, its disorienting watching upside down
sorry, I dont know much about transmissions... sounds like that one is in need of a rebuild.
Hey brother...how bout when I turn sharply at slow speed there is a wobble. I was told that was a sign. Turning left hard and right. Thanks
Great video. As clear and as easy to follow as can be for newbies like me. Much appreciated!
Are the U joints for the front, rear shafts and the ones on the front axle all the same? Do these differ in size?
Is it dangerous to the car to drive it under the speed that the vibrations occur? My mechanic can't fix it until next week and I don't want to make my car worse. I'm convinced it's the drive shaft U- Joint after watching your video. I'm planning on not moving the car anywhere until I drive it to the mechanic under the speed where the vibration starts (around 35 mph) about ten miles from my place.
Also, what part are you referencing to as the "yoke"?
Could the failing front drive shaft U Joint cause a transmission fluid leak?
what is a topaz?? ahh, I just looked it up... it could be but that car is going to be a whole different ballgame than a solid axle u-joint replacement.
Would bad U joints cause a vibrating while decelerating? It feels like it's right below me and it is almost like a humming noise whenever I release the gas.
Hey
Very good content about u-joints and your wacky silly ending was just enough to make me chuckle out loud !
Andrew in Santa Fe with a front end shimmy !
I have a steel spacer I'm gonna replace the aluminum junk one but I don't know if the box is loose or not, hadn't really checked it out when running my new brake line. So why am I getting a binding/rubbing feel when only locked to the left?
Also, I think my drag bar may be bent maybe...you have the part number handy to replace the steering bars and tie rods?
I have a 6" lifted power wheel Barbie jeep thatll match that helmet perfectly and its got some 12" super plastic swampers on it.
great video Old Gregg
Mine doesnt vibrate and isnt loose but there's grease sprayed everywhere like one of the bearings exploded and it sounds like a bad bearing. It sounds terrible when I accelerate from a stop. Kind of weird symptoms. I changed a bunch of pulleys out on the engine thinking it was those. It did need it anyway but the sound didnt go away. I'll replace this next as soon as it stops snowing!
its the only way to do it with bigger tires.
Im goen to do a new part or 2 every week to my ZJ.Would you try to find the best part thay make to replace it.What do you use.
Any tips on ajusting pinion angle. I just did a basterd pack thanks to your help and its popping like crazy. :(
maybe power steering pump is going bad or low on power steering fluid??
