Default Cherokee steering fault

My 1999 Cherokee snaps steering box bolts. Replaced them 3 times and now using high tensile ones but the steering feels awful and the chassis is flexing slightly. Is there an upgrade kit to fix this problem, such as thick steel plates either side of the bolts? Its quite dangerous to drive (not used off road). The steering box is not seized in any way. Any advice gratefully received.

C-Rok bracket fixes the weak unibody problem around the steering box bolts. The unibody is notorious for cracking around the bolts.
