Well Hello my name is kevin and im new to this site and wondering if somone can give me a clue or tell me whats wrong with my Jeep..Its a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited V8 Quadra trac II

Well my Jeep drives fine but when it comes to me turning and turning my steering wheel all the way mostly when im driven my car shake/vibrates feels like the wheels are dragging its really hard to explain for an example wen i get home and im about to pull up in the drive way i ll drive slow but once i start cutting the wheel all the way i start to feel the steering wheel vibrate and it feels like if i keep turning while its vibrating ima snap something

Diff has fluid so does the transfercase both CLEAN!! and axels are good

hopefully me explaining my problem makes sence to somone thanks for reading:comprage1 :boink:

Sounds like your viscous coupler is going bad. What the VC does is allow slippage between front and rear during some maneuvers, and eliminate slippage in some circumstances.

When it begins to fail, it will cause a little binding in sharp turns, as yours does.

I haven't done this repair, but I understand it's not too bad. Do a search under viscous coupler and you should find a wealth of info.

Here's the instructions for replacing the VC, http://www.masoncomputing.com/np249/,

If you need a VC I got a good one from a 95 with about 50k miles on it. Actually I got the entire Transfer Case. But if you want the VC from or the entire case let me know, not sure if the VC (or transfer Case) is the same for the Quadra-trac II tho, might want to make sure it will work first.
