Default Front track bar bracket messed something up

Installed a front track bar bracket on my 2 door with 4in lift now when I turn my wheels right while sitting still the front passenger side raises up about 2ins. When I turn left while sitting still the front drivers side dips down about 2ins. Anyone know what could cause this?

Did u use a dropped pitman arm? I imagine if not, your trackbar and draglink are no longer parallel which causes issues. At 4 inches, a draglink flip kit would be a good investment
