Okay, so i got off work with all my Jeepin buddies and with 2011 Cherokees and 2000 cherokees with like 5 inch lifts .. :JEEPIN:
We were doing donuts in 4WD and just tearing up the 6 inches of snow here in michigan.
(didnt beat on mine too much)
ANYWAY! i had a 50 minute drive home at about 35 mph.
When i used the 4WD and was on the gas i got some vibration sound/humming that was louder than normal.
Now, i couldnt exactly tell too much because the ice/wind was making a ton of noise too.

SO, any ideas/tests i should check/do in the morning before i go out?

I find that not only in the Jeep, but in my car as well, that after being in snow I get a lot of odd vibrations and sounds until I run it through a good car wash to eliminate all the ice off of everything. If it still there, dig deeper, but it's always a good step to start with.

Good chance of snow build-up in wheels and other places that can cause an off-balance affect.
