So the other day I was taking my TJ to the car wash.
As I hit 45 mph, the steering wheel started shaking and I’m all over the road. Immediately turned around and went back home.
Did some checking and found that the steering gearbox had one broken bolt and the other 2 were loose.
The broken bolt defied all attempts at extraction, so I had to drill it out and helicoil. New hardware installed and wobble disappeared.
Oh well it’s one more thing check after a wheeling trip.
