in laymans terms,
your tracking is a fucking mile out bud!
get the toe adjusted(tracking, adjusted via the trackrods) and it will be peachy as fuck

Completely depends on what you've set the ride height too.
If they were set the same as original height you'd be the same, but lower a Sierra and all sorts goes to pot!
