08 jk front end
I have replaced all the control arm bushings, replaced track bar, put in new proper size bolts, new upper ball joints new tie rod ends. Got rid of "death wobble" but now the axle feels as if it wants to wander all over the road after front end alignment.
What else can I do????

Hard to say for sure since you don't know the before specs, but my guess is the shop that installed the lift put your caster up around 5 or so, and the alignment shop put you back down to the 'stock' JK specs. (assuming you have cams ?? Crawl under and take at look at them. When installed, the shop may have painted a thin line across them, and if so, you should easily see if the caster has been altered)
I'd go back to stock pitman arm and go high steer. Mine drives quite well with 4degrees caster and the high steer at 4" of lift. No bump steer or flighty handling. The flighty steering most likely from what I've experienced and read will be resolved with the draglink flip.
Try a bit more caster first, 5 degrees, as it is a free "fix" if it works.
