Too much play in my steering.
This is my first time using this forum.
I have a 2001 Dodge 3/4 ton 4X4 Diesel truck. I upgraded my tires to a larger All Terrain Tire. Ever since then I noticed that there is more play in my steering. Is this common for larger tires? Are there any adjustments needed? Are there any after market products that could help?
Thanks for you help.

Where to begin??? The best advice I can tell you is doing a search on the forums. There's some very good detailed advice in the forums.
Basically, check every steering joint and especially the track bar. Check the play in the steering box and tighten it if needed (done this yesterday, huge difference!!).
