Shakes or Wobbles problem
1995 Jeep Cherokee V8 Four Wheel Drive Automatic

our vehicle was clicking when you turned the steering wheel for a while and yday we put 2 new tires on the front and headed down interstate. the cruise was on then all of a sudden it jerked and started running real rough like a flat tire, but it wasn't. so we turned around started driving slowly towards home and when we mashed brake it starts to shake and sounds like the front end is going to fall out. could it be cv joint or what?

The clicking when turning usually indicates a bad CV joint. If it is loose enough, it could cause these problems. Check to see if there is excessive play in it and let me know what you find.
