Re: '94 Jeep Cherokee review - 2-month owned mark...Gremlin-marked now



" From: Jerry Casper <gremlingts@xxxxxxxxx>

"   Well, I've owned this Jeep now for 2 months, driving
" []
" The front wheels "click" some, I guess the 4-wheel
" drive components. It usually clicks more when I make a
" hard turn parking or backing out, then goes away
" mostly or completely under normal straight-line
" driving. I'm not worried about it (yet), just wonder
" how normal for a 119k mile Jeep this is. The other
" (scarier) thing I've noticed is when I've hit some
" rough roads with bad patches, the front end can start
" to shimmy and shake a few seconds before stopping. My
" Chevy Van does that, it has bad A-arm bushings. I
" haven't crawled under to look at the Jeep yet, but
" that hard shimmy on rough roads is a problem that I
" need to fix. Doesn't make me comfortable with it doing
" that!

i agree with jeff about the clicking.  the shimmy could be the
bushings as you suspect, pooped steering damper [if any], or bad
shocks.
