Default Front end issues

Hello again. I drive a 1999 Grand cherokee limited 4.7L V8. Ive recently noticed that my front end looks like it has sunk a bit, there doesnt seem to be as much clearance. Also, on sharp left turns, usually when parking, theres a groany squeeky sound, im pretty sure its the tire rubbing against the wheel well. This is followed by a slight shuddering or the tires/steering wheel when straightening out the wheels driving slowly. Ive heard its quite common in 4 wheel all time and jeep quadras.

If anyone could give their 2 cents it would be greatly appreciated.

Jake

If your refering to death wobble it doesn't happen when your going slowly, if the front end has noticably sunk check underneath and see if the spring has shifted on it's perch or maybe collapsed.
Are there any wear marks on the treads of your tire since this has started?
What size of tires are you running and are you at stock height?
