Suspension shakes

[StuartBlack]

I was driving a few days ago down my driveway and I noticed my drivers rear wheel moved side to side quite a bit
Drove it back and parked it
Figured it was a wheel bearing and went to talk to garages and they agreed, got a rear axle bearing for the corporate 9.25 rear end (it’s the 2005 1500 sport 4x4)
I got the bearing and seals and slowly drove it to the garage
Just picked it up and it’s still have a lot of tire sway
Put my brother in the back and drove it down my driveway over bumps and he said the tire itself isn’t moving, it’s the bed and suspension
So may have replaced the axel bearing for no reason (although it’s not a bad thing that I got it replaced)
What suspension would be making the bed move side to side?
I recently removed the box to change my fuel pump, could be loose again and need retightened?
Any help would be appreciated

Is he your little brother? haha I like that. In all seriousness, I'm not sure he could see the suspension from in the bed of the truck so I'm thinking your bed is loose but I would also check my leaf springs and mounts. If they're all solid holding the axle to the frame, it has to be your bed. Good luck,

Haha yes he’s my little brother, he’s 17 though so he’s not proper little
I think he more meant he could feel it shake so it could be the suspension
It passed inspection a few months ago now it seems like everything is going all at once
Still beats payments though!

Get your wheels balanced by someone who knows what they are doing... My 09 had vibration and wheel hop. Drove me insane... nearly.
