Probably need a new steering stabilizer. That's the shock in front of the front axel that lays horizontal. You can get a good one for less than $100.

Thank you for the help. Good info. Might be the track bar. Feels like it just drops out when in the ruts on the freeway.

Thank you, I did replace stabilizer a few weeks ago, and ball joints. Its better but not fixed. I think maybe its the track bar. 126,000 miles on the Ruby.

Try sucking the fluid out of the power steering reservoir with a turkey baster or whatever you can use. Fill it back up. Then start the jeep drive around a little turning the wheel back and forth and repeat the process like 3 times. I had a wobble replaced the universals in the axle ( didnt help) then did this and it stopped
