Default Shaking jeep

Just replaced track bar and installed dual stabiliEr. I am running a 4" rough country lift with all 8 arms. Can it be my driveshafts causing the shaking. My shifter shakes so bad I have to hold it thinking it could fling off and break something. Mainly does it at highway speeds. Jeep has 50k miles and lift has only been on for 14k or so. Thanks for any input.

Check your tranny cross member and u-joints, driveshaft for anything loose. Our 2010 shifter shakes/vibrates and always has. It's a mobile vibrator pretty much

Need some more info.

What kind of drivelines are you running if not stock?

Adjustable control arms or fixed?

Check your Ball Joints?

Play in your draglink or tie rod?

They are adjustable arms. Have not checked tie rod. Will check everything this evening if I'm able to get the time. Yea the shifter is pretty violent. I have the rough country x flex system.
