I just got this Ford. I got an issue fixin the little issues and driving it down the road get a wobble when cursing at 35 no where else, yet. Its not a vibration but the steering wheal bounces back and forth. Slow down and goes away and gun it past 35 and cruse at 40 and doesn't happen. So to the suspension experts here, ideas?

I would say inspect ANY pivot point/ball joint unit. Its probably high enough on the ground where you can do it w/o it in the air. With weight on the front wheels, you'll see slop quicker. If nothing is Visually bad, I put my hand right on the pivot points and have someone wiggle the steering back and forth. You may feel it before seeing it.
