Jeep shakes tremendously when reaching around 40mph and steering wobbles. When slowed down it stops. I have a Toyota Bundera RJ70.

Could be a separated tire or bent rim. If you have a lot of wheel weights (for balance) in one spot, you can have the tire rotated on the rim 180 degrees to help with balance. Start with getting the tires and rims inspected and computer balanced.

Also have the steering damper checked, this is a shocker like damper on the drag link.
