the vibration could be coming from the transfer case. im assuming your jeep is 4x4. a friend of mine had a similar issue with his wrangler. his jeep drive shaft vibrated too. but what broke was the yoke connecting to the driveshaft. yours may be wearing out as well.
I have a brand new 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee - vibration noticed at about 40 Km per hour - the dealer found shaft was moving in an oblong form in the hanger bearing - corrction by replacement of rear drive shaft. My question is, is this a common problem? Ron, Canada
