Or poor wheel alignment, worn tie rods ends or steering rack etc. Even tyres in some cases.

If its moving about at the rear, check the rear bushings.
My D3 used to be a real worry on one particular downhill, right hand bend. Especially when towing the tin tent.
I'd travel thousands of ks around Aus and THIS corner, 40kms from home would scare the **** out of me.
After replacing all rear bushes, (which looked OK), perfection again.

PS. The cheap struts I bought in 2022 are still going well.
