steering feels loose and travels alot. have had it aligned by two different shops and hasn't corrected. tires are not a problem, balance is good.
feels like the steering is loose and wheel wobbles in my hands on large bumps when front susspention is extended. any information at all would be helpful.

Check the control arm bushings for wear. Also the track bar and it's bushings as well. Raise the front end up and see if any of these parts have play in them. Could be worn tie rod ends as well but the alignment shop should have picked up on them. Still you may want to check them yourself. Some shops are more thorough and knowledgeable than others. It may help to have someone else in the jeep steering back and forth while you look for play undernieth. That being said, try not to kill yourself. Good luck.

checl the Fluid Level of the Power steering Pump. and if that as along with what BP said is good, then it may just be the Gear Box is out of adjustment or bad
