Hi Folks

I have a 97 TJ and started noticing wobbles from the rear end of the Jeep when I come out of first gear on the straight or when turning a corner ie u turn. The rear end just shakes so bad it's like someone not getting the car in gear right and starts to bunny hop. I have replaced the coil springs with Dobinsons and running Rancho adjustables. Tyres are new. Thought it was the sway bar, but it's not.

Not sure if it could be coming from the TF case or not. Any suggestions please.

Panhard bush could be stuffed

It's possible. Will have to try and give it a good shake on the weekend, but looked at the mount the other weekend and all seems ok.

Control arm bushes or panhard bush.

it could be a bent diff or the LSD is packing in. When you do your next service, pop the cover of the diff and have a look and run a magnet threw the oil to see how much metal is in there.

All fine suggestions - but also check your wheel nuts.
But really my money is on the trans mount.
