It's more and likely your power steering pump is on it's way out... How is your steering.. ? Check the fluid level.. Pop.. According to his profile, he is driving a 2013 F250 with over 125K miles.. (I think he means a 2003)

Welcome to FTE. Flushing the ATF is much easier on a truck than a van, but it's still a good place to start. As mentioned, make sure to use ATF in the power steering system, not power steering fluid.
Since we have hyrdoboost brakes, the steering and brake systems are connected. Even if this isn't your issue, it's probably time to do it anyway. Here's a link on how to do that.
