I'd be curious to know what 3" suspension lift you used.

hard to tell exactly we need more information have you done the 4wd diagnostic in the troubleshooting forum i assume because it's hopping that it's operating properly though

If you could understand that, impressive... please try to form full coherent sentences and use punctuation. It helps us, and in turn will help you.

Alignment. Mind felt like hopping or shimmying and4x4 amplifies it before aligning. Fixed now.
I hate to advocate weird chemicals, alcohol, violence or insanity to anyone...but
they've always worked for me.
