If the steering is loose, you need to inspect the usual suspects. Start with the rag joint, followed by tie rod ends, then ball joints then wheel bearings. At that point, we'd need to know if the steering has had a crossover conversion done. That's about the only way to correct the geometry involved with that much lift correctly.

Welcome. What he said plus that’s a lot of tire and will amplify even a small issue. that will make even fresh steering feel loose. What was used to correct steering arm geometry? Drop pitman arm, raised steering arm or offset link or a combination of the 3? Pics of the set up would be helpful. What pressure are you running in the tires? Big tires tend to destroy ball joints quickly. Was the steering box mount reinforced?

Ultimately you will need cross over steering if you plan keeping the big lift.
And bigger garage...
