Default steering problem on my cherokee! any answers

I have a 99 grand cherokee with 4" lift and 33" tires. I was driving the other day and all of sudden I couldn't turn right but could turn left. The wheel just wouldn't turn right. I got out to look, didn't see anything go back in and put it in drive and started moving and it started working fine again.. any thoughts on what it could be?

Steering stabilizer. The mount on mine can move and makes it impossible to turn right if it looses up.

Ok I will take a look at that and see if its loose. It just happens today. Someone told me its prolly the cv axle or something which I'm hoping its not or nothing is bent cuz I have crazy pot holes where I live. Thanks tho

Just throwing it out there. It could be the cv boot is torn, grease went out and it's locking up. But going straight you would feel resistance.
