1994 Jeep wrangler 88000 miles. I have a bad vibration when I take off. It rattles the shifter and makes a horrific noise. It only does this when i take off, after that every thing is smooth as silk, well as can be expected. I have checked everything that I could think of from tires and wheels to drive shafts and so far nothing is loose. Pleas help.

Check your mounts first. If they look good could be your pressure plate

Suggested Repair

Check the engine and transmission mounts first. If the mounts look good, inspect the clutch pressure plate.

Conversation Summary

The owner of a 1994 Jeep Wrangler with a manual transmission reports a bad vibration and noise that rattles the shifter only during takeoff, after which the vehicle runs smoothly. Tires, wheels, and driveshafts were checked and nothing was loose. The expert advised checking the mounts first and, if they look good, the clutch pressure plate. No follow-up confirmed whether that resolved it.
