Hello.
I have been chasing a drivetrain vibration/noise at certain RMP/speeds since I bought the car. The vibration/noise is very noticeable when the drivetrain is loaded, for example going uphill at around 2000 rpm. It is not engine related since it's not making this noise when car is stopped and revving the engine.
Brought the car to a trusted mechanic and he detected play on the rear driveshaft joints, he thinks that's causing the problem.
My car came with Rzeppa joints both front and rear driveshafts.
Since I didn't find any REAR driveshaft joints for the 2.7 CRD, I bought both ends for the FRONT driveshaft since they look exactly the same. WRONG. The yoke bolt holes on the REAR driveshaft are bigger than on the front, so I couldn't repair the driveshaft.
Does somebody know what joint repair kit to use? Are other jeep model joints compatible?
Thanks
