Default Vibration

gday there

have just joined the forum. I have a 95 grand cherokee laredo with the quadra trac gearbox. Have just put it on the road and have discovered a vibration :(.
it occurs at over 55mph ( 95kph) but only when you let off the gas and are decelerating ( not using the brakes) if any one has any incite on this little problem i would be very grateful :)

Are you feeling the vibration in the body or through the steering wheel?

through the body and its not so much a vibration as a shudder. And it isn't constant. i was thinking drive shafts universal joints? but again nothing under acceleration and no shudder once you get below 50mph.

Check the bushings in the control arms and the track bar. Sounds like something is coming loose.
