is their a diy on bushings and stuff or I am supposed to read the service manuals and figure it out on my own?

Symptoms.
Bouncy shudder on take off.
Truck hits speed bumps and feels like extra movement like hitting two instead of one.
Bumps on highway cause it to go off track a little.

I know It might need shocks but I have a feeling bushing will make a big difference as well

 

me thinks u-joints and new shocks will go a long way for ya.
Maybe a new steering stablizer as it sounds like you have some bumpsteer.

 

Shocks shocks shocks!!!!!

Gas magnums seem to be the most used around here for stock height ride

Check all u joints, replace if not sure, and if they look original lol

And check you're wheel bearing/hub mine was REALLY bad but i had no symptoms

Check ball joints, tie rods, and especially track bar

But definitely replace your shocks
