so when braking my jeep tends to sway alot, sometimes its hard to stay straight in the lane. would a steering stabilizer fix this issue? or is it caused by something else?

Hi, are your sway bars connected (Front & Rear) and also check your brake shoes (rear) and pads (front) for unusual wear...Tj

Also check your trackbar and your tie rod ends as well as alignment.
