The only way to check the u-joints is to take the drive shaft down and feel if they are binding. Is the wobble in the steering or in the seat when you're driving?
There is a long drag link on the front end of those jeeps that controls the front differential from swaying side to side. I have seen those go and cause a steering shake. Also, the tires may look ok but the only real way to check if a belt is out is to put them on a wheel balancer.
