Hi and welcome to the boards from Saskatoon. First make sure your front end is not worn out, like the ball joints, tie rod ends etc. A new set of shock absorbers will help too. If your truck does not have one, a front sway bar will make a huge difference in the handing of your truck. A step further you could replace the steering box with a quick ratio one. If money is no object you could order a complete Hotchkiss Suspension package but they are 6000.00 US.
