Default Small lift bump steer.

I am new to this forum. I’m looking for answers about what I think may be bump steer. I need to know if my angles are wrong so I can fix them. I just don’t know where to start. I think my track bar and drag link angles are wrong. Please please please help. Every time I hit a bump the steering goes which ever direction. Everything is tight though. I did a lot of front end work. Only think I can think of is my axle isn’t centered or my angles are wrong.

SeriousOffroad has suggested this in the past:

Track bar mount (frame side) for movement
Track bar mount (axle side) for wallowed out hole
Tracbar TRE's
Draglink TRE's for wear/play
Tie-rod TRE's for wear/play
Balljoints
Unit Bearing Hubs
UCA and LCA bushings
Improper caster
Improper toe-in

I would go in order of cheapest to no money to most expensive... good luck, let us know what you do...

Everything up front is pretty new. I didn’t replace ball joints could that be a possible cause
