02 f-350 steering issues

I have a 2002 f-350 crew cab 4x4 with 100k on it. I was going down the road the other day and ever since the steering has felt funny. If I turn the wheel it feels really tight and the truck just seems to wander and go where ever it feels like. Its a weird feeling going down the road and its getting unsafe so just wondering what you think it could be?? mechanic said it might have to do with the axle shafts but not sure if that could be. I was thinking more like steering gear box. Its not leaking and the pump isn't leaking either. The truck is a powerstroke diesel if you need to know.

thanks for your input

Last month I had both of my autolocking hubs take a dump and they started sticking. I was swerving across two lanes just trying to get it home, looked like I had a few too many golden sodas. Replaced them with manual lockers and everythings OK.
