Drive? Mileage? Maintenance? Modifications?

Rather than playing 20 questions ...

HINT/TIP: Put your vehicle information (year, model, cab, trim, engine, wheelbase, _x4 drive, mileage, modifications, etc., etc.) in your signature -OR- provide it in your posting(s).

Edit Signature

not exactly sure what to check
For starters ... Check all steering, suspension, and driveline components. Yep, you're gonna have to get it up in air and crawl underneath.

My 2011 F150 Lariat 5.0 Auto has an issue when it is less than 20*F or so. The upper control arm bushings shrink when that cold then the alignment bolts slide through the bushings. That's my deduction. I bought new ones, but it's too darn cold to change them right now.
