    have you checked wheel balance? did you have a shop check it out?
    also try moving front tires to rear, and checking universal joints on driveshaft

A good bump will make that jeep shimmy real bad If the steering damper is bad. If the damper has visible oil leak or has more the 20,000 miles on it-Replace it.

Why does my jeep vigorously shake after either going over 50mph or a bump n i'm not talkn about a vibration plz help...tie rods,sway bars, track/control arm, new tires,4x alignment, pwr steer pump

I had the same problem with mine, if u look on the drivers side there is a bracket bolted to the frame that the drag link hooks too. If this bracket is cracked or broken or bolts have come loose or fallen out, your front end will go crazy after htting a bump at any speed over say 25 mph.

I have a 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. There is a "violent" vibration that occurs only when you are going 40-60 MPH and you hit a bump or pot hole on the highway. The front end begins to...

Vibration from about 40-60 mph is usually attributed to wheel balancing, but the onset when you hit a bump seems to indicate play in the steering linkages (tie rods etc) or suspension members and stabiliser bar rubbers but you had that all checked out, that brings us back to the wheel balancing.

My 1999 jeep cherokee sport will shimmy after hitting a bump at 55 mph. should I be replacing suspention arms and bushings?

Need to get it checked first but reckon you may have a buckled wheel, or similar. Also check tyre doesn't have a dangerous bulge in it due to carcass failure.

I have a 1997 Grand Cherokee Laredo. I get vibration in the front suspension while driving at 60 MPH or hit a bump in the road. I need to slow down to stop the vibration of shaking. Has anyone had this...

you are getting an oscillation .you need to put the front tires on the back and try it again as it could be bad tires.
if it is still the same,put the vehicle on a hoist and check the tire/rim play side to side and up and down.
turn the wheel and check for bearing noise.
common things are wheel balancing,tires,tie rod ends,worn axles and bearings.

1996 jeep cherokee sport shakes badly over 40mph

Front end need to be checked. checked shocks and stabilizer links.
check damper shock.
Check the tie rods. They had come loose, causing the wheels have excessive play and vibrate. Be aware that they will not balance tires or give a front end alignment if the tie rods are the culprit. They must be replaced first, otherwise the alignment will only hold until the first time you turn the wheel...which could be 5 seconds after you get in the car. Good luck.

1994 jeep cherokee shakes when driving over 50 mph

First I would make sure your tires are properly balanced. A common diagnosis of this problem is worn front end components such as tie rod ends, control arm bushings, ball joints etc.
