I made my d350 4x4 .Just seeing what I could do to help with road walking?

Did you rebuild the outer ends of your axle before you installed it? I.E. king pins and lower bearing.

Did you replace the cross member under the radiator. A $X$ cross member is thicker. Which will help stop frame flexing.

Did you use a $X$ engine cross member or cut down the 2X$ cross member to work?

Stock height or lifted? Stocks springs or after market. What brand if after market.

Your showing cross over steering. What brand?

Brand of tires and wheels used?

Offset on the rims?

TOE.

My truck did some road walking (following the road ruts, valleys and other grooves), but as soon as they did the TOE on a computerized machina, it was a fix e uppied..

Not enough caster can do it so can tire choice. As "T" said toe. toe often will jump back and forth.

About order all my stuff to do a rebuild on front axle.should of done it when I had it out.

The one on my parts truck was the same thickness and was bent.had to keep 2wd.

Did you use a $X$ engine cross member or cut down the 2X$ cross member to work? I used the 4x4 one

4in lift and going order skyjacker.unless there's a better brand out there

Your showing cross over steering. What brand?
Had to go back to factory 4x4 set up.

Brand of tires and wheels used?
Goodyear wrangler authority. And ions

Ok you left the orginal front cross member. Have you checked the rivets to see they are tight. If they loosen up the front end tends to wonder some.

Stock steering? Did you use a drop pitman arm? Is the steering box in the front mount position with the plate installed?

4" lift! Get the truck on a front end rack and have the caster checked. For that matter just have the front end caster/chamber/ toe in and front to back track angles checked.

That will tell use where your setting at a lot.

Make sure the differential isn't bent as well. I will assume it is a Dana 60 and not a 44.

Another place to look is the bushing at the bottom of the steering column. If that has excessive play, it will induce a wander on uneven surfaces.
