Are the ball joints and spindles from BD? if so, check to insure the ball joints are not binding against the spindle . Those joints have orientation marks to get them properly fitted. If the front tires are the stock 8"wheel tire combo you got what is known as "push". typical of the stock combo. Those tires won't grip enough to make a hard turn. If your considering replacing them, use a Kenda 248 front max 21x7-8.
the kenda's can open up another can of worms though, the larger tire can rub against the frame during tight turns. if you do have the BD spindles , I believe the axles are intentionally long enough to space the hub out with shims to give needed clearance.
