What sort of noise is it? If it's a squeak while moving, replace the rusty u-joints before they break causing serious consequential damage.

If it's a loud BOOM while moving, check for TSBs. It may be caused by the differential ring gear acting like a lasing device and easily curable with a rubber weight.

If you have a loud clunk while changing between forward and reverse gears, check for possibly loose u-joints, weak or broken trans or engine mount, rear (not front) suspension component, excessive gear lash in the drivetrain, high idle speed, cumulative effect of drivetrain gear lash being at the high end of acceptable. Old fluid or low fluid level in transfer case or either front or rear differential may also cause a clunk, as can a problem with an encoder motor due to encoder motor failure, wiring fault, or GEM module fault.

Why plastic coating on propellor shaft yoke of automobile?

The chances are the shaft in question is most likely made of aluminium. The "tube"of the shaft will carry "noise" of the drive train. The covering is there to help limit the noise and vibration. It is more for dampening noise than a structural covering.

If you meant "Why is there a vibration, or vibration like sound when I'm driving" it is because either the drive-shaft is dented or one of the balancing weights is removed. Or basically it is not balanced, therefore vibration occurs.


I have 97 jeep grand Cherokee quadratrack with 5 inch lift has noise like bad cv shaft but both are new is it the front driveshaft?

I;m not sure if this the prob. but when you lifted the jeep did you re-align the wheels? Or the drive shaft could be at to much of a angle for the u-joints. with a lift the drive shaft will probably need to be lengthend. Most of these items will cause noise.
