Vibration or shake around turns

[Jakethesnake73]

I get this vibration when i go around turns and it happens kind of often. It feels like I'm locked in and seems to be more present when i am accelerating

Wheel bearings in good shape?

When was the last time you rotated your tires?

Jack up one wheel at a time and spin it
Look closely at the sidewall while its spinning
Make sure it's not the tire

While you have it jacked up
Grab the tire at the top and bottom and pull out on the bottom while you push in on the top
 if it has any movement It usually the bearings bad

Ujoints, balljoints and then spring bushings.

also true
Depending on where the movement is

You can also use a prybar under the tire after you've jacked it up to help see what's worn out

Every old truck I've ever seen needs balljoints and tie rod ends and a drag link suspension bushings and usually bearings too

Ive rotated the tire which has seemed to help im also going to replace my bearings and tie rod ends (they arent loose but one had rust come out when i  greased it).  One of the ball joints has been replaced and the other seems fine but i may replace that as well
