Had something similar with 35” tires. Lifted hood watched linkage as I moved steering wheel. A couple bolts on linkage needed tightening. Biggest steering fix was adding 2-degree steeper caster shims. Can hit any highway bump and she’ll go right back to tracking straight on her own.
I had sbc 350 overheating issues. Previous owner put on a serpentine belt but did not change water pump. I put in a flow master and made all the difference.
Could also be your transfer case shifter mount is loose and the bolts from front drive shaft are rubbing on it. I'm in the process of installing twin shifters and one of the mounts is very close to the front driveshaft bolts.
In my 1969fj40 I ran the original carb for years. Bought the same but rebuilt and ran that for years. Started having minor issues and finally bought a Weber 38mm. Cost $569. It runs way better and wish I had made the switch earlier. I love(d) running the old school stuff, but I also love just...

Full metal tech cage. Here’s a photo of what it would look like assembled. This photo is from Metal Tech website. I had one years ago. Needs assembly so you have to weld it together.
I’ll post photo of the kit pieces beginning of the week.
