The later models (99 & up I think) had catastrophic ball joint failures. I'm not sure if this is your situation or not, but you should look into the ball joint saga. You should be able to find sites that cover it very well. If it is a ball joint failure the upper or lower A arm can separate from the frame. While the truck is moving. This is NOT a good situation. I have seen a few "results" from this problem. It's not pretty.
Hope this is NOT your problem.
Don't know if your truck is 2wd or 4wd. If 4wd it may be in the axle or transfer case. if 2wd your possibilities are more limited. Like the rack&pinion. That's not pretty either.

I thought if it was your cv joints it would also be happening when driving straight not just turning(maybe im wrong correct me if I am). My friends needed a new cv shaft cause his was shot and at times when driving the truck it would start shaking then randomly stop.

ok thanks guys, well mine hasnt started to shake at all so i hope i can at least drive it a little while longer, oh and its a 2wd, my alignment is perfect and they didnt mention anything bein out of the ordinary such as tie rods or ball joints, but it feels like something is loose, cause it will kinda pop when hitting some bumps in the road. but its not hard pops just small enough to irritate you lol
