Go back and read my post again, slowly this time. It isn't vague at all.

I mentioned the sway bar bushings because my truck has the same symptoms. My wife’s VW did the same. It seems to be a thing typical to vehicles with power to front axles.

That's so strange. I'll definitely look over them again. Thanks!

UPDATE: So I went to take the strut out and i guess the shock had broken like my old one and it exploded and missed my face by an inch. Threw my Bilstein 1500s in and we're good to go. Not worth the little bit of extra comfort. The factory electronic ride shocks cant handle these 33s.

Thanks everyone for the help.

Gud lawd!

So now it's not wobbling over the bumps? Makes sense if one corner was being controlled and the opposite one was left to freely bounce.

It surprisingly wasn't wobbling over bumps, I just felt and heard that corner of the truck pop up and down when accelerating or slowing down. Very weird. But yes that's no more!
