What should I check for a swaying problem in sterring? When driving down the road you get play in the steering colume and the truck swayes trying to compinsate for this is there a way to tighten to colume steer or is it in the steering box, what should I look at?

Have an assistant help you
with engine off key on have helper move steering wheel back and forth only move wheel through steering wheel play. As in move wheel when you see wheel start to move go the other way. Look at the tie rods no play steering arm gear box anywhere a part is moving and the wheels are not is bad
