Okay, I have a 99 jeep cherokee classic 4L, 4WD, with 150000 miles. At speeds of 50-70 mph, the steering wheel shakes violently when i hit a bump. The wheel does not jerk either direction, just shakes. I have replaced the steering shock, checked all bushings, ball joints, and tie rods. Everything seems tight with little movement. I just replaced front and rear shocks today. Any ideas on what could be causing this shaking? *Bushings look somewhat worn and could be replaced but they are not bad.
Had front end off the ground when checking front end.
 
I just fixed mine! I thought it was ball joints, but it ended up being my tie rod. Be sure to check your outer and inner tie rods. It was only like 35 bucks to fix. It only took like an hour to replace. If it is the tie rod make sure you get the right measurements and thread count so you will have proper steering. It will take two people to do the job, so you better buy some beer! Good luck and keep me posted, I may have more advise!
