Default New tires and lift - not liking it

I finally have the 2" lift installed and the new tires on - I went with 33x10.5x15. I have to say that I'm not liking the ride. The suspension is a bit firmer with the new shocks and the tires are at 30psi. The ride is very bouncy, and it rolls more when cornering (slow cornering, cause you cannot take corners fast in a Jeep).

Also, the suspension squeaks now - it didn't before - any ideas?

I would try putting the tires to 28 or even 25 psi I put mine at 28 psi as I found at 30 psi the truck bounced around alot a big difference for a small drop in psi

I drove to Calgary yesterday with the tires at 28psi, big difference. Also discovered there may be something loose in the back suspension. I'll check later today.
