Both links offer what I was referring to. I doubt your box is worn out with only 20k miles, might just need the bracing and you might lose the sloppy, wandering feeling..might try a new steering stabilizer.
As to why I keep going with Dodge trucks...I have a few reasons.
First, I'm a Ford guy, owned a few of those as well (had a f350 before my current truck). BUT...Ford had some issues (as all trucks do) but had more than I wanted to deal with, referring to the 6.0 and 6.4 diesels. So back to Dodge, with the famous Cummins and the main reason I keep going back. Compoared to my Powerstroke, I just prefer the power delivery of the Cummins. Haven't tried a Duramax so can't compare.
Point is, this is my preference and all brands have their quirks as Dodge does with steering. You fix it, you move on. It all depends on what your willing to fix, put up with or drive you to another brand. My next next truck may very well be a Ford...as I'm a Ford guy and they have had pretty good luck with new scorpion diesel....but Dodge may win me over again...you never know.
