Has any body had a issue the tie rod angles. I have a 2001 Tahoe with rc key lift and 1.5 spacers in the rear. 20x10 rims -44 offset.295/60/20 nitto mt's,
I had it re-aligned and it steers great on a flat surface.
The issue I'm having is when I hit a dip or bump in the road the suspension flexes and the truck will jerk or steer left or right. I think ive figured out that the tie rod is moving from at a downward angle to straight and is moving the tires as a result.
I think this is called bump steer.
is anybody else having this issue. i searched and found nothing on it.

:welcome:to the forum from Georgia Dawg country. You are correct, when the suspension moves with the tie rods @ a different angle, it's moving the tires @ the same time when hitting a dip in the road, larger tires/wheels just add to the problem, JMHO and good luck.
