I know guys my jeep is full of crappyness right now, but I look to all of you for advice. So does it make sense for my KJ to run shacky during 4 wheel drive accel. after the lift, if I have not gotten it aligned yet?

If you're driving without getting an alignment after getting a lift, you are probably destroying your tires. The "toe" needs to be corrected after the lift.

My tires are already shot....I am trying to wait till closer to the winter and till I can save up enough money to get a good set of tires. Is that why it shakes though?

Tire-related shaking and vibration are common if your tires are uneven, out of round, or not balanced properly.

Well it's some sort of shaking. I am assuming that it is do to the lift after not being aligned and the tires being bad. But what worries me is that it feels like it's from the drivetrain. Like when I accel. the jeep is working harder then it used to to get speed. and once I put it in 4wd it's even worse. I dont really know. I'm going to try not to drive it untill I get to rotors and brakes done. Untill then lets hope it's nice out so I dont have to take my motorcycle out in the rain.
