Steering problems
Hey, just put a lift on 3.5 rock max travel, running at 285/75r17 in tire. My steering feels loose, I did a new tire rod, hd drag link flip, track bars. And have a heavy duty fox steering stalizer, but my jeep still wonders all over the road and pulls one way then the other. Also just did you joints. Still have the oem ball joints. But when I took it for alignment they said everything was ok. Any thoughts?

The wandering feeling is most likely due to the negative caster you now have because of your lift. If your lift came with adjustable front control arms you can increase your caster and decrease the flightiness you feel. If your steering feels loose, this is a different issue, and you may have a loose bolt somewhere in steering linkage. I would re-torque all the bolts in front suspension.
