Description of the problem	F250, super duty, 3/4-t, 4x4, 4wd, short box. All speeds it is noticeable. At highway speeds (75+ mph), encountering bumps, severe shimmy in front end, nearly causing loss of control of vehicle. Fleet of 7 trucks all experience same, some worse than others. Dealer has done all possible to remedy, including aftermarket heavier duty front steering stabilizer (at our expense). Incident date is last date it occurred to my cruiser truck. It happens every time a bump in the highway is encountered with every truck our department bought for use as law enforcement vehicles. The magnitude of the wobble is dependant on the specific truck and the speed traveled. Realize that as law enforcement response vehicles, often this involves very high speed. The higher the speed, the worse the problem.
