Liberty Uphill Reverse "Chatter"

Did the trailer didn't have the overrun brakes engaged ?

Did you notice any mangled childrens bicycles under the truck? Running over a bike your kid has left in the driveway sounds alot like that too.

There are no brakes on the boat trailer. This trailer and boat weighs about

So far, my dealer service people say that Chrysler believes that this vibration/shaking/pulsing event is a "normal" occurrance.

I get this when going in reverse in my yj. If i ride the clutch some my whole jeep will shake like crazy and the whole drivline will make a horible noise. The only thing I have found is that it may be the springs on the clutch plate not absorbing the initial momentum??? Something like that

I'm new to Jeeps. However I would lift your vehicle and inspect the drivetrain. You might also want to invest in a service manual and grease gun. Lube all the grease fittings before a tow job and check all the fluids below. Chrysler might not be that far off with their comment if you do not have issues without towing.

You have a broken trans mount, that is why your YJ shakes. The KJ could have a bad mount too, but because it is brand new, it is not likely to have a broken mount already.
