check the alignment of the front tires...if they are not both perfect straight look at the long tie-rod between the two tires...take both nuts loose and turn this tie-rod until both tires are perfect straight and retighten...

Shouldn't there be about 1/8" toe in on each side?

I also thought there should be 1/16 to 1/8 toe in. I have a lifted 2007 txt and had the same problem until I did the toe in and added a little more air to tires. They still bounce a little at 1st 1/4 mile or so, but smooth out when warmed up.
