Sure, another common early ML problem.
It probably needs new front sway bar links. This is hard to describe, I'll do my best.
The inner swaybar links are the supports that hold the bar up, they are under each fram rail. There are updated ones available, here's a description to tell if you have the old style ones or not.
If you look at the top of the link, it fits between a bracket and held in place with a good sized bolt. Look between the sway bar link and the bracket it bolts too. The old style link fits tight between the braket, and has sort of an aluminum looking face on each side of the link. The new style link has about a 1/8" gap on each side, you can see the gap between the link and the bracket. There is an inner spacer inside the new style link where it contacts the bracket. I can get you part numbers if you need them for the new style link.
Nothing is loose, guess you can consider it a design flaw, so don't try tightening anything, doesn't do any good.
We have been having some troubles up here in loosening up the outer clamps on the lower control arms to replace the links, maybe it won't be such a problem on a southern truck, no salt or any mess like that.
