Steering progressively developed a wobble or shake when making right or left turns over the past 7 days. I hit a couple speed bumps pretty hard and it seemed to develop after that. Could just be coincidence though. Drives great in a straight line. Double checked and it is not in 4 wheel.

2" budget lift installed around two weeks ago. Have not installed the bar-pin eliminators yet.
New BFG KO's 6K ago.
New ball joints all-around today. For the upper pass. side they had to put in an offset ball joint after checking alignment.
The shop thought the wobble was maybe the tires riding on the very outside of the tires only while turning and said it is ok. I told them I never had the wobble until a week ago and this was my second set of BF KO's (235's).

BF's balanced and rotated after ball joints / alignment today at a different place where I bought the tires from (Arms and Feet). Still wobble. ugh!! :confused1
 
You need to recheck the torque on everything you took apart to put in your lift.

And check your lugnuts too.
 
While you have everything apart, replace the u-joints, they are binding.
