    Pullin in to do my 30 and take a fairly sharp left turn and it felt like the right front wheel was going to fold under the truck, same thing backing into my spot. I initially thought low tire causing side wall to cave but both steers sittin at 108, after a visual inspection I see nothing wrong. Hearing maybe bad kingpin but I have no steering wheel shake and this is a 2018 Cascadia just broke 200k miles
