The tires are good
Had them checked at a tire shop and all my steering components are tight these tires are just heavier and taller so idk what it is and I really need my truck up and runnin
It's hard to say how indepth the shop went checking your steering components, for instance checking the latteral link on the diff from the engine's cross member and it's respective rubber bushings actually is not easy to do. It usually needs to be removed for inspection.
If you have King Pins then those should be checked / repack bearings and adjust as needed if needing rebuild then rebuild them.
If you have ball joints they must be unloaded and checked unloaded with front end suspended up enough to get a jack or good long pry bar under the wheel to check those....actually same to test king pins....only difference is ball joints cannot be rebuilt, only replaced.
Next after that is wheel bearings and u joints in the axle when the front end is up in the air.
Don't forget to twist turn your steering linkages at the tie rod end or TRE as often referred to. Test for slop binding and anything unusual...sometimes a pry bar can be slipped up under them to check for vertical slop not seen by twisting
Now from tie rod to drag link and make sure both ends are good....
Next in line is the steering box, and respective shaft from the column, which has a universal joint on one end and a rag joint on the other...those have to be in tip top shape, there is also a plastic bushing in the actual steering shaft that allows the shaft to compress in an ancident and it needs to be in good shape or you get slop in steering and it could cause issues.
Brakes need to be checked for warped rotors but wheel bearings have to be in top shape first prior to testing run out of disk rotor.
As you can see, having your front end thoroughly checked requires a great deal of work and not just a cursory glance of steering linkage!
If you have a twin traction beam front end not a solid front axle, then there are even MORE components to check. Pivot bushings need inspection/checking and trailing arm bushings need a thorough inspection.
All brackets should be inspected for cracks, loose rivets and so forth.
Clearly alot goes into steering a vehicle.....have you checked every single item above? ...If not time to inspect...Oh lets not forget shocks..
some fun eh?
