Yes, it's because of the way the drag link "pushes-pulls" front to back (instead of side to side) in combination with your lift. What was done to "correct" the steering? Steering block? dropped drag link?

Bad planning on your part does not necessarily constitute an instant emergency on my part....

The great thing about being a pessimist is that you are either pleasantly surprised or right.
