Did you install an adj track bar or at least relocate your stock one?and did you install lower adj control arms,either one of these will cause death wobble if not installed,reasons are the track bar allows you to recenter your axle,and the control arms allow you to keep your caster at +7 degrees,when you lift it it wants to go towards 0 and that will cause death wobble,bushings,ball joints will contribute also.

The lift came with a bracket to lower the trak bar and also came with a pair of lower control arms so they are on the truck. I welded the trac bar bracket thinkin that might work but nope no luck. I have had the wheels balenced but not sure about the allignment on it. Guess I could try that....
