Steering gets very light over 65mph
Hi guys,
As it says on the title, the steering gets very light over 65 mph to the point I can turn the steering wheel with my pinky finger (It feels perfectly fine while driving on the street at below 65 mph). What could be causing this issue if it's an issue at all? maybe alignment? Please let me know when you get a chance and thanks in advance!

PS: Forgot to add, it does not shake over 65 mph at all

Steering normally lightens up at speed, so part of it may be that. Pump may have a pressure relief that is not releasing at the normal pressure, that might make for a lighter feel,
But you would want to compare not "speed" but actually engine rpm, because the engine can go just as fast in 1st or in 5th, and the pump does not know the difference. If the effect is just ground speed related, it may be a combo of tires and pump, or just tires. if it is related to engine rpm, then maybe just pump.
