mine has been dong it since I got it. It happens on the highway and when I hit a bump or when the road seams up with a bridge while going around a turn it happens. It has to be weight issue of an empty bed.

My dakota it is noticable. In my dads 02 ram it is scary. When doing up on brigdes his whole back end kicks out. It has scared me plenty of times. Also alot of my friends have trucks and riding with them i have notice all make model 4wd have more kick.

Yep, mine does it too. It gets much better with some weight in the bed though. I'm going to put a couple sand tubes back there to help out.
