Ok, my 99 4.0L auto has a vibration at idle and when you get on the gas. Thinking maybe a trany mount. The exhaust is leaking at manifild too so i think i have hit around the front pipe as it comes down from the manifold. Any other ideas. Ill check the engin mounts too.

Is the vibe just at Idle or does it continue threw acceleration?
Could be the torque converter bolts. or a cracked flywheel. And check your harmonic balancer too.

Idle and acceleration. Not so bad at idle if out of gear

I think it might be the exhaust on the body.

Does it have a miss like a spark plug or bad wire?

Nope. Hard to describe, the more i think it is like an exhaust vibe

My exhaust was hitting the T-case cross member, and made allot of rumbles under the rig.

Time to let it idle and crawl underneath

Sounds to me like the normal XJ idle vibe.
