Default New "shimmy"

I finally decided to install the 1" teraflex spacers that I've had forever a couple of days ago. I previously swapped to different factory springs front and rear and this was the final step to fine tune the stance..love the way it turned out.

I have a slight problem though. After the install I'm experiencing some steering wheel "shimmy", like an out of balance tire. Seems to be worse going around curves and doesn't show up til around 50mph. It has me baffled because I haven't had any previous problems. During the install I disconnected my JKS links and unbolted the shock..nothing else loosened or removed. Any ideas what could be causing my shimmy?

The only experience I have with that kind of shimmy is ball joints
