I have always ran load range E tires (in various sizes and max pressures) and run them at max sidewall pressures without issues, some folks have reported that their EX can get a little skatey with those pressures unloaded.
Thanks! I checked and they are indeed the LT 10 ply tires. I work with a guy who's a tire expert and he'll let me know if I'm doing something wrong . My pressure is good as well.

I'm also thinking it may be the steering stabilizer/damper. The entire front end on the Ex seems original....for a Ohio truck in the rust belt..., So I may eventually replace everything up there.
