    2007 Liberty front vibration

    I will be taking somewhere as soon as I find a mechanic with his brain in his head and not his buns. I'll have him look for the metal needle bearing that was mentioned in an earlier reply. I'll continue the thread as soon as I get the work done so I can share the result with the group.

    2007 Liberty front vibration

    Yes, it does kind of sound like an out of balance tire but I know they are good. Had them checked before I joined this group. No chirping or squeaking type sounds. Just the "thumping" sound when I am above about 45 mph. I put it on jack stands last weekend and took the front right tire off...

    2007 Liberty front vibration

    It's a Daystar (I think) 2.5 lift kit. I did not install it - it was already lifted when I bought it 2 years ago. Ran fine with no vibes back then but about late May I stated noticing the vibes.

    2007 Liberty front vibration: cv axle or bad engine ? I have been looking for the cause of a front vibe using a ton of great info on this forum. Started out by noticing the boot on the aft CV joint on the front propeller shaft was pretty much gone and the joint was sloppy. Removed the shaft...

    "Thumping" noise in the front

    Good ideas. I did check the front cv and it was tight and smooth. I poked around on it some after work tonight and noticed something else. When I push up and toward the rear of the inner right cv axle it moves quite a bit and seems to pivot a little on the half shaft. Not sure if that a...

    "Thumping" noise in the front

    Hello everyone. I'm new here and am finding a ton of very helpful info. So first, I'd like to say thank you to all you fellow jeepers that take the time to help out. I have a 2007 Liberty Sport 4X4 with a 6 speed manual transmission that is kind of stumping me lately. I have a "thumping"...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I removed the front drive shaft to troubleshoot a "rumbling" sound under the drivers seat above 35 or 40 MPH. Drove it for a few miles after removal and the noise is gone. 122,436 miles on what looks to be the original parts.
