Front Right Tire Locking Up???

i was driving down freeway and truck started jumping like crazy i had to pull over thought i blew a tire or cracked a rim..
Jack up the front of your truck. Spin the front tires. Have a buddy pump the brakes a couple times, and release them. Spin the tires again. Any difference? Does it take the same amount of effort on each side to spin the tire?

I think I got it figured out.. I feel so stupid!!
THAT is death wobble. Generally due to a worn track bar.

Alright im almost sure its rubber hose on driver side because i went to work today and had to drive all the way to detroit to the house and i stopped for gas and noticed that my driver side smelled like roasted pads.. and now i feel so stupid because when i started changing brakes i was only going to do pads and rotors but drivers side caliper would not go back in.. i even bent a C clamp on it.. so i called got price on caliper.. when i took it off i noticed that while i was toying with it the fluid was moving i was able to push it in with my hands and soak myself with brake fluid.. yeah i didn't think anything of it, stupid right??
well i have not checked track bar yet other than reaching under and giving it a jerk and it clicks when i jerk/****** it towards the front.. my guess is it needs replaced.. Mean anything??
