Check to make sure the brake caliper isn't sticking. Also, have you checked the alignment, steering components...?

Haven't checked alignment yet I just noticed it. Would that cause the truck to bounce while making a Sharp turn

It shouldn't. However, if you have a brake hanging up, it could. Check to make sure the brake caliper isn't sticking. Safely lift and support the wheel, spin it, have a helper hit the brake, and then see if you can turn the wheel after the brakes are released. If the rotor is overheating, it could be grabbing.
