I'm guessing wheels, tires, or suspension. Bad struts should just make it bouncy on bumps.

Most likely rims that are unbalanced, go to a shop with a road force balancer. Firestones usually have them.

Either out of balance issue or a tire issue.

Yes I have stick on weights and the tires are falcon's... On highway the ride feels decent but on roads that have minor cracks , pot holes or dips it feels horrible even with the truck loaded with ppl

Sometimes the weights will come off. I would definitely inspect the tires and wheels, make sure no bubbles in tires or tread seperation
