Mine started this once the steering stabilizer went bad. Pretty cheap/easy fix for a scary problem.

i went through alot with mine man started after the 3in lift, put a new track bar bushing in got a little better, went through retightened everything got a bit tighter, did my alinment, put the caster maxed out positive and pushed the toe out to straighten em up. really helped alot. does it every once in awhile when i hit a big bump doin like eighty, but since then i got new tires, and all is good. also i replaced the swaybar endlinks, and dual steering stabs will be next.
