So I just wanted to check back in with everyone on what the issue turned out to be... It was the steering box. I picked up a rebuilt one off of RockAuto. It is a re manufactured unit by the Lares company. Swapped it out with no other changes and the problem is gone.

Wish I would have done it sooner rather than living with it for so long... But honestly never assumed the box was the problem since it came from Firm Feel. Oh well... Thanks everyone for all your help! -Brian
