I would get/ have a professional take a look at it. How was the wheelin? Any pics?

I see you have a 4 in lift, did you change anything with your tie rods or a drop pitman arm, front track bar. First look to see if the front axle is centered with the body. If the axle is off center then the whole steering will be moved to that side and your wheel will be off set, this can be corrected by an adjustable front track bar to recenter the axle. Some aftermarket drag links have an adjustment to recenter the wheel to allow for the lift setting in. My Curry HD system has this. I would start with the centered axle and go from there, hope this helps.

You just need to adjust your drag link. It's a 15 min. job. I will see if I can find the wrire up if you need it.

Then you just cut and paste them in.

Keep trying on the pictures. Cut the link at the very bottom below the picture and paste it in.Then try the preview and see if it worked. Good luck.
