Not getting gas?

I have a 94 Cherokee w/ 160k, which feels as though at times it's not getting gas and bounces/jerks a bit then it kicks in. It started happening at about 55 but over the last few months, it has gotten much worse and does it at varying speeds. I don't think it is having problems shifting, but I could be wrong. I was thinking either fuel filter or worst case, perhaps transmission problems. The fuel injector cleaners are doing nothing.

Plugs, wires, cap and rotor first. Fuel filter if you have one.
The later ones are inside of the gas tank. You can always do a fuel pressure test.

I would start with changing your fuel filter

I would also start with the pressure test. This could be the fleu pump, then I would look at the thing Aloha mentioned
