very shaky ride...help please!!!

Hi all,i have a 2006 v8 sport with 105k.... last december all 4 shocks and springs have been changed to 5100s and moogs 4 month ago all 4 rotors ,2 front calipers and pads all around have been changed to oem . the front is lifted all the way billsteins allow and rear is lifted 1.5" daystar spacers. HERE COMES THE PROBLEM i read through the forum and it doesnt fall into DEATH WOBBLE CATEGORY. I DONT HAVE SHAKING TO THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN ON SPEEDS ABOVE 45 AND BRAKING. WHAT I HAVE IS THE SAME EXACT FEELING WHEN MY SHOCKS AND SPRINGS WERE StOCK AND SHOT.I HIT A POT HOLE AND THE SOUND IS NOT HOW IT SHOULD BE(big bang).IF THE ROAD IS CURVED A LITTLE AND THERE IS A POT HOLE ,I AM ALL OVER THE ROAD IF I HIT IT WITH ONE WHEEL OR BOTH. MY MECHANIC LIFTED THE TRUCK AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT SEEMS TO BE LOOSE OR BROKEN . is there anywhere i should specifically look into?or just change the whole front end(which will cost me a fortune and i dont have it lol)or could it be that the springs are shot again? Thank you all for taking a time to read all this and possibly suggest my further actions....

so....i have seen two separate mechanics today

they both took a ride,they both said there is something wrong but neither of them found whats wrong

everything looks good in there,tie rods,ball joints,sway bars,bushings etc

bearings are fine too,if they wouldnt be,i would hear rubbing sound and i dont have it....

now i am very upset and confused on what to do next .i dont want to change the whole front and unrelated items to the issue.

could it be possible that shocks or moog springs are shot?i changed them last december as mentioned in the first post...

thank you
Ilya
