Steering stabilizer?
Ok so I aired the tires down a bit to 30 psi... Much better... I think I'm still gonna get a stabilizer though just seems like the right thing to do... Bigger tires more weight to move when you hit bumps the stock one isn't gonna cut it. May not make a huge difference but it'll make me feel better about other stuff breaking...
I didn't see what size tire you went to, but you might also look at the 'Setting Your Toe-In' section of this write-up.

And you may as well look at the 'Setting Your Caster' section also, since you just may end up with some adjustable CA's at some point...

Check how tight everything is. A track bar that is just a little loose (still plenty tight but not as tight as the torque setting should be) can cause the jeep to be all over at highway speeds. Plus checking how tight things are is free.
had a bb on mine for a year and it would wonder around with a stabilizer. alignment shop said caster was off. went with rubicon express 3.5 inch lift with adjustable arms, no wondering around anymore and i do not have a stabilizer at all.
Am I the only one who thinks bigger tires will increase bump steer? I just put the teraflex longarm lift on my jeep and 35s and with the alignment set to the recommendations in the write up posted above, I still have a bit of wander when hitting bumps and such on the highway. With the bigger tires I think a stronger steering stabilizer would help reduce the bump steer.
