If you are considering changing caster to a higher positive degree number, be advised that this is a costly venture on a Ford (and possibly other brands) since there is no eccentric cam to adjust. It requires special shims and and a partial front suspension tear down. On a diesel truck - even more bucks since nothing is easy to reach or even see.
IIRC, Ford specs are +2 - 4 degrees. Currently mine is at +3.8 and with new tie rod ends and stabilizer, pretty tight steering anf no wobble.
For what it's worth, if yours has 20-40,000 miles and you haven't had the "experience" yet, you may never and nothing to worry about. There are hundreds of thousands Ford owners that have never had a problem. Just be aware it can happen. For myself, I have too many other worrysome situations - i.e., that moron that thinks brake checking me with that 12++K lb. tow is funny.
