Is there anything i can do about it; i have stabilizing shocks and the whole nine yards; that is supposed to keep it from being that way; yet its still very sloppy when traveling down the road. Any suggestions?

Its not going to ride the same lifted. Did you make sure everything is tightened up?

It all depends on the quality of the lift kit, the type of lift and who installed it. My F350 was lifted by a well known 4 wheel drive store and the kit was a well known brand. The kid who installed it did not torque the pitman arm and it resulted in very sloppy steering, etc. The Ford dealer found the problem and fixed it. My recommendation is to have a competent mechanic who specializes in suspension mods take a look at it. You could easily cause an accident in a lifted truck with sloppy steering.

Did you use a shackle kit? Shackle systems are known to affect steering and sway control.
You need a steering stabilizer...

Because, YOU LIFTED YOUR TRUCK. If you didnt want the choppy ride maybe you should have left it alone. If you wanted a monster truck you should have ordered one!

after a lift you'll need to have your front end realigned it think it will run you about $50 but it may be less than that

you might need to go somewhere and get the frame recentered so that its square.
