01 turning issues

what would cause the steering wheel and truck to shake well turning at a lower speed? It feels kind of like when turning sharp on dry pavment in 4x4 but its not in 4x4, and feels kind of like when you have warped rotors the steering wheel shakes the same way? I have the truck up in the air with the wheels off and am trying to find worn or broken parts but have had no luck finding it yet?

What would be a good starting point to check? Or could it maybe have just gotten knocked out alignment?

Thanks, Frank
