Default Steering "Hitch" after Teraflex 2.5 coil lift

Guys,
I was wondering if someone could help point me in the right direction. I have a small slight steering "hitch" or soft clunk....when driving. The clunk comes when I turn a little bit off center left or right. I can't reproduce the problem when sitting still. But I can almost feel it in the gas pedal...just from center to the left or right a little. So if I turn from the 12 o'clock to 1 o'clock or from the 12 o'clock to the 11 o'clock...I am just not sure how to diagnose the problem. I put on a Teraflex 2.5 coil lift a couple of thousand miles ago...That is my only mod...and 33" tires. Anyone have ideas where to start...Thanks very much
