I used to have a taurus that did that...and it turned out to be the CV Joints. The boots were torn and dirt and grime got in there and screwed everything up. I don't really know if that would do it on yours but I thought I could relate.

I am now having the same problem with my pu. The guy that owned it before had the ball joints replaced before. I am also going to be checking into this.

Being that this is a rear wheel drive it will not have the cv joints but the ball joints. I am going to look in my chiltons and see how fun this is going to be.

It may be a $2 fix....you may want to look at this before you bring it into a shop or replace any part of the suspension:

----If you have 4 wheel drive you have CV joints, same as a front wheel drive car would have.
