Power steering feels fine... wheel is easy to turn at speed or sitting still. the shake around corners is almost as if the wheel is too easy to turn and you have to put 2 hands on the wheel to not oversteer. I think replacing the front suspension is the likely fix as it kind of feels like there is no dampening and you are just bouncing on springs. Got fairly new stock Raptor tires and there is no shaking whatsoever in a straight line so all should be balanced...
I know the feeling of bouncing on springs. It does move around a lot more. Riding springs gives no resonance dampening so they do tend to shake and keep shaking. Get a rebuild or a little upgrade and hopefully that'll solve your issues!

When your suspension blew, did it go all at once/ was it obvious? Or over a length of time? how did it handle when it went? Where did you purchase your new shocks and how$?
To add on, my front passenger side started leaking first, it started to lean a little and the bumps on that tire got much more pronounced. Soon after the driver's side have way also and they slowly but steadily got rougher and the front sat lower and lower. Offroading bumps and potholes got to a painfully rough level even slowing down a bunch. A few thousand miles later the rear started to act off, it was rougher too.
I noticed the lean to a side and I looked at the shock and physically say some fluid coming out where it was easy to tell something was off
Everyone I know has asked if I lowered my truck on the front, it sits a fair amount lower than normal.
On one of the raptor shock exchange sites I found this sheet and I believe it. Before they blew and got really worse I did notice a decline in performance even way before they started messing up.

I don't have new shocks yet, still deciding between a big upgrade or a shock exchange. But I'd say after 40k miles the noticable decline began and then hit bottom when they gave out
