what about your steering stabalizer? i just replaced mine with a skyjacker stabalizer and it made a world of difference!

Have you tried jacking it up and grab hold of each wheel and checking for abnormal play and any other connection points in the front end? Just a thought

im liking the steering stabilizer idea, maybe my tires got a tiny wobble? just had it aligned too tho
the alignment was like 47 degrees on something that was supposed to be -1, so they did a big realign
