Check for rocks stuck in tread , check for proper air pressure in tires, jack up each wheel/tire and spin it to see if tire or wheel is out of round (up and down motion) or wheel is bent (side to side motion) . Up and down could be either broken belt in the tire or a bent wheel either one. If it isn't a tire or wheel problem then you need to have a mechanic check steering linkage , ball joints, esp if they haven't been kept serviced regularly.

Guys my jeep liberty 2003 engine start shaking when i reach 45 mph but before that in seconds the transmission shift 3ed to 4th several times in rapid and than the shaking happens and i must step a side...

Google "***** wobble" common on big Dodge, Ford, Chevy, and things (like Jeep's) with bigger tires and lifts as miles go up. Yours is also likey a bad wheel balance . Have the wheels balanced and watch them spin as they balance them.

When driving once you get up to 45 miles per hour starts to shake whats the problem ?

Not knowing where the shake is coming from, my guess would be to have your tire's check out, and go from there.

Jeep front end shakes badly when driving down the highway at speeds of 45 miles an hour to 55 miles an hour. The whole front end, tires shift from side to side, almost coming out from under the front end...

Bent rods....Okay...first thing...did you hit anything or or run over anything? Second, did you go off-roading....

It could be a few things....some easy and some expensive...but need to know what you have done with the Jeep first.

Jeep 1993 grand cherokee shakes when I excel over

Shaking like that is generally associated with most commonly, unbalanced tires. You also should have the driveshaft universals checked for excess play. Either can give you a shake at certain speeds.

Front end shakes violently ay 40 milss per hour

have a look at your tires,to see if there is uneven wear, also for a little money, have your wheel alignment and tracking angle checked, these are the usual causes of shaking at undefined speeds....

P.S. does the shaking go away above 45 m.p.h.
if so, then its your wheel balancing
