Weird feel in the steering on a 2000 z71

I just bought a 2000 z71 quad cab it has the 5.3 v8. Driving I noticed or should say feel a little virbating or like something is loose in my steering column. I really feel this when my front end goes over bumps it don't feel major it kinda feels like something is loose in my steering column Any suggestions what this might be?

I would first check the pitman arm, idler arm, tie rods, ball joints, sway bar, connecting rod, and steering linkage. how many miles are on this truck, it may need some front end parts replaced.

Check the TSB on the intermediate streering shaft "clunk" in this forum

I have a 2003 that had the same problem. they had to replace the steering shaft from fire wall to gear box under the hood it fixed the problem
