What you should do is get an alignment.

Your toe end is off on your alignment, you need to take it to a shop and get an alignment.

alignment will do the trick..anytime you mess with your suspension like that it can throw your toe off and you will need an alignment

did you install a caster kit? might want to do that......depending upon how low you are, you might need one of those.
