So I made a post a while back about some vibes my Jeep was having. They happened during acceleration and went away when my foot was off the gas. Turns out that when on jackstands, the back tires actually wobbled under acceleration. Scary.
So knowing it was internal axle problems and not wanting to fool with it... I took it to a shop. He found that the pinion bearing and carrier bearing were shot. He replaced those, and $475 later, my back tires still wobble and it still vibrates. Not as badly, but still WAY worse than it ever should. I'm a little pissed. But I don't know what to do... I have -NO- idea what's wrong with it.
Any ideas?
EDIT - Specs:
98 Jeep Cherokee Classic
8.25" rear with Trac-Loc
Tom Woods SYE and driveshaft
NP242 tcase
RE 3.5" lift w/full packs
...its been lifted with the SYE for almost 4 years, and it just started the whole vibe issue about a month ago. It always vibed a LITTLE on the interstate, but now it does it at any speed, so long as I'm on the gas.
