Vibrations in front end??
After rock crawling I have something shaking in my front. I'm really hoping its just a tire balancing issue. The wife can't feel it (as a passenger) but I can feel it in the steering wheel and at 75-80 mph it gets bad. It's a 2012 JKUR automatic 2.5 RK max travel with bilsteins and 37" km2s. Thanks for any input and help
Did you land hard on your front end at all? Check the u-joints in your front shafts. I'd pull the front driveshaft and drive around the block to see if the vibe is gone or not and go from there. Since it seems like it's speed related its more than likely a moving part that is causing your problem

I know this has already been said- mud inside of the the wheels. Sounds like a similar problem I had. Just about took the whole front end apart searching for the problem, and I had already "cleared" the wheels. Turns out out though that it only takes a small amount of mud to cause major vibrations. Double check!

I triple checked for mud, that's not it, as far as my ball joints and cv joints go as far as a just looking at them I'm not sure how to tell if something is wrong with them or not. They look ok to me. I'm taking it to my buddies shop to drop the front driveshaft. If that's it I will just put the stock back on for now.
