Default Sloppy steering... Clicks and pops coming from front end.....stability control

Ok here is my truck.
2011 JKUR
4" rough country lift
Dual steering stabilizer
34,000 miles

I have been impressed with the lift until now if that is what is causing my problems

Since I have had the lift put on the stability control comes on more than I would like, but tolerable. It is the worst on rough farm to market roads
A few weeks ago I hit a curb in a parking lot (not very hard). I didn't figure this would be a problem in a jeep with 35s lol, but since the steering wheel has been cocked to the left. The next day I took it in to get it aligned Firestone informed me that it was out of alignment,but not the reason for the turned steering wheel. Being frustrated as it took 4 hours for them to do the alignment I left. A few weeks later I am hearing a grinding or popinjay noise and increasingly loose front end. I am hearing the noise in a higher spot than expected around the gear box.

If you have any ideas or experience for this situation please share. I took it to jeep this afternoon for them to look at tomorrow. The bad news is they are already trying to blame the lift.
