I lifted my truck on Friday did Alignment today and jaded the trail on my way from the shop to trail I was going 70-80mph when I went out of the trail the tracing control light kept going on/off and stopped the truck (not totally -just like it douse when u drive on a snow/mud) then I tried to ignore it but couldn't really get over 35mph so e z and the most I went was 45mph and the feeling was like the car is chocking... What could be the problem? (Side note: most of the trail was rocky vary vary little mud...)

did you try resetting the ECM? Or pulling the Traction control relay? If the speed sensor isn't the problem like posted above, it could be a problem with the Traction control system.

Nop I didn't try (it was too dark when I got home I'll take a look at it in the morning) 1. What is a ECM ? And how can I reset it? 2. Where exactly is the traction control relay?
 
Wow...I'm no grammar nazi but you make your post very difficult to read lol. Between the missing punctuation, spelling, or lack there of lol. Anyways...

ECM, is your computer. Disconnect your battery for 5-15 minutes and reconnect, that will reset the computer and potentially clear any temporary codes. I would also check the ABS/Speed sensor wires/plugs since the lift was just installed.

Also FYI, normally you would want to do about 500 miles after lifting a vehicle with normal driving and re-torque everything to make sure everything is correct
