1992 jeep when hitting about 50 miles per hour steering starts to shake any advice?

That is most likely being cause by a loose front track bar. When the track bar bushing at the axle bracket or the track bar ball joint at the frame rail bracket becomes worn it will result in a shaking which has become known as the ';death wobble.'; It is caused by the front axle shifting back and forth. Even slight looseness in that track bar bushing or ball joint will cause a shimmy. See the track bar here:

it happened to me with my car, and i had a bad tire, but i didn't pay attention to it, and when i did, it had a big rip and i almost got stranded, so you should check your tires.1992 jeep when hitting about 50 miles per hour steering starts to shake any advice?
Most likely a bad tire, also check to make sure your rims are not bent from hitting a curb or running over something
Take it to a garage and do a full check up to be sure.


I gather its the suspension needs to be adjusted.
Bad Ball Joints. May also need an alignment.
Check your tire pressure, if that is not it then you probably need an alignment.
I would say you need to have your tires inspected and rebalanced.
its called the death wobble. im not kidding there are alot of forums about this goggle it.
