Cincy Area..Need Help Diagnoseing a Problem

Hey guys, I'm sort of new to the site , been posting a few weeks now. I'm on my third Jeep but it's my first built up rig so I'm new to a lot of the common problems. Anyhoo, I've tried describing the trouble I'm having not only here but another forum and to a couple friends both of whom are Jeep efficienados but neither lives nearby but no-one can really give me a difinitve answer without actually hearing the problem themselves. I really really re he heh healllly! need to borrow someone that really knows their Jeep TJ's. I am pretty sure I have a bad U-Joint but that's not related to my main problem but need some confirmation on that as well. I really think an experienced knowledgeable Jeep guy or gal that hears what is goin on with my baby will be able to help me pinpoint the issue and start repairs. I really want to learn how to do all this myself so anyone that has some time this weekend or this coming week that would be willing to try and help me figure this out then I got dinner and beers for ya!

I doubt it's anything major becuase the drive train in it's entirely functions smooth and without problem but I have a feeling it is something that needs a attention soon...Please HELP!

I'm on the NE side of Cincy.

What's it sound like?
I grew up on the north side of Cincy near Ross.

Does it make noise at all driving speeds? Forward and reverse?

Yes and it clearly is affected by bumps, when I hit a bump it becomes louder and I can even feel it in the tub floor. I know this isn't possible but it feels and sounds like the whole drive train is loose.

Sounds like it could just be a ujoint issue.
I would start with replacing that bad ujoint that you have. While your at it just replace em all, not just the bad one.

To me it sounds like a ujoint also. I had a similar problem in my 90 xj that use to have.
