Handling characteristics
#5

Just to add to Michaels comments. Tire pressure, ride height, 1/8 toe in on straight axle coaches, check for looseness in tie rod ends and in both panhard links front and back. Add on devices like safet steer are bandaids

Do not allow an alignment shop to set the front end with neutral toe, you can't keep it in the road.

Easy way to check for play is with dial indicator on magnetic base. Mount base on one side of joint and dial against something on other side of joint. Apply pry bar to joint. Anything over. .005 will give you slop
