I have installed a 4 inch lift on my bronco ii. Since then the truck is horrible to drive. The steering seems to fight itself from side to side even on flat ground. It has been aligned many times and still has not made any difference. I have replaced all four ball joints, both pivot bushings, radius arm bushings, shocks, caster/camber bushings, and all the steering linkages. What can be done so this truck will drive safely? I have lifted many b2's and rangers and none have handled like this truck. Thanks for any ideas you have.

What dropped pitman arm did you put on it for your steering? (the one that came with the lift?)

Sounds very likely it's not dropped down low enough.
Do you have a pic from the front of your truck showing the axle & steering linkage?
