by the second month that i got my jk. some noise and a small vibration came on my steering wheel.

i took it to the dealer and he took it a ride.
he told me that nothing is wrong !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the problem seemed to be stronger in a few months.
i took it again after 3 months , after 5 months , after half of a year. now that i am writing my jk is already 2 yers old with the same problem.
a mechanic friend of mine tried to find what was the vibration!!!!!!!!!!!
after several thoughts we figer out that is the steering post and the cross that is very close to the engine . the heat is destroying the grease:what ?::crazyeye s::s ad2::dontknow 2::don tknow2::dontknow2 :


has anybody else the same problem????????????????????????????????
the dealer says that some other has the same problem and he is going to find a way to fix it . but one month has passed and not a several call

 

Are you talking about the steering shaft that has one end that connects to the box and the other goes into the firewall?

 

i thnk that we are talking about the same think.
but my english are not that good. ther is a column that comes from the steering wheel and stops to the continuous.
tell me that you understand?

 

That's OK, sef, cause my Greek totally SUCKS, but you're probably talking about the famous steering clunk. If you do a search on the site for steering clunk, I think you'll find all kinda useful information.

 

you ain't fuggin kidding! What I gathered is your Jeep is great but the heat is destroying Greece!!! or was it the jeep sucks and the heat is destroying grease. I hope it is the latter because Al Fricken Gore is just looking for an excuse to cry global warming!

 

Man, you ain't right.

 

Intermediate steering shaft, get it replaced.

 

thanks for your help

 

you must be right.

 

Mine steadly got worse over several months, greaseing it only fixed it for a month at a time, finally replaced the shaft, no probs yet, 6ooo m on the shaft so far.
