steering wheel play
hey guys
my mother just gave me a 2000 dodge ram 1500 truck with 196k miles it runs great no issue there but
Passenger rear door
Driver floor board
Fender needs replaced
And a big dent needs popped out somehow
i do have a steering issue
when i'm driving the truck fast or slower i have to constantly move my steering wheel to try and keep it in the road i have to move it at least 2-21/2 inches either way i been looking online and not really much help there so u guys have any suggestions?
she definitely needs some love I’ll add a few pics
but more worried about the safety of the truck first

If you plan on holding on to it, looks like a good time to buy a welder. What does the frame look like? As far as the steering, have someone get in the truck (engine off) and rock the steering wheel back and forth and look for play at the joint on the top of the track bar. Also check out Ram Rock Solid Steering Fix bushing. Does it shake and shimmy on the highway?
