I would check your track bar. And also check the mounting brackets on the frame and the axle. I would also check the control arms as well.

Part time 4H is not for use on other than slick/yielding surfaces. If you are saying the steering wheel "fights back" when turning and returning to center check/grease/replace the axle shaft u-joints.
