You have a 4.5" lift, Try the Teraflex Drag Link flip kit. It works great and gets rid of all of the bumpsteer. Also make sure your tires are balanced. That seems to be the cause of 90% of people's vibration/ shimmy probems.

How new are your tires? Have they been rotated recently?
If it isn't that, you will want to check your track bar mounts.
I'm no mechanic- by any means, but the track bar mounts were an issue for me.
