How do you tell what angle your caters are at?? 
What is your caster at?? Your lifted on 35's with the same lift as me, and I needed adjustable lower control arms to increase my caster. That will make steering less flighty, and make the front end feel might tighter and less loose. Mine is 4.5 degrees and it rides pretty good. Shocks will help, did you just get shock extensions with your lift?? if so, check out OME and Bilsteins shocks.

And I apologize as I can't suggest/tell people where the deal(s) are. We stay out of the sales side of things. Just answering questions.

Shocks
Nitrocharger v's Bilstein 5100's. not a good comparison. these are two different types of shocks that will offer completely different rides. the Bilsteins are a Monotube Digressive shock, are much much firmer, especially around town, but will offer a more direct ride. Nitrochargers are a twin tube progressive shock, in fact they are one of the softest shocks i have seem, aside froma Rancho on low setting. Go to a shop and play around with a few shocks, push them in and out etc, you will notice the difference. The new OME sport will offer more of a comparison to the Bilsteins?
