Hows it 'lifted'? Springs, body lift, longer shzckles, spring over...?
Have you checked the ball joints/tie rods?

I've got the same issue, its a combination of a couple of things....
Tighten the nut on the steering box
Tighten up both the relay rod and tie rod ends
Change every single bush in the thing
And most importantly...Check the spring perch holes, where the springs have a small pin that locates into the axle housing ! Mine is clapped out and I'm getting rear end steer because the hole thing moves
And you may have movement in your shackles, you can fix this by welding blocks in between the two flats to reduce swaying movement
