Power steering issue..
Hey guys, I'm new to XJ's but not automotive. I have a 2000 xj 4x4 4 door with the 4.0 and an automatic trans. It has 145,000 miles and right now I am having an odd power steering issue. Whenever I turn, mainly at lower speeds is when i notice it most, the steering wheel is kinda jerky or bumpy. Theres no resistance, I can turn fine but when I turn and have the wheel return it is jerky/bumpy. I was alittle low on power steering fluid so I topped it off but the problem is still there. I heard that a possible problem could be the U-Joints? How would I go about checking this?
Any help is useful!
Currently I am at school so my options of working on the jeep are limited, hopefully it's something easy.

Checked yesterday. It was the opposite wheel of which I though. Got everything loose exempt the last hub screw. So I will buy new hub & bearings before I change the u-joints.
