Default Front End Bouncing

1992 S10 4 door 4x4
I replaced all four collapsed shocks with rough country shocks. In the rear I added the rough country add a leaf and 2" shackles. I turned the torsion bars and gave it a 1" lift in the front. I did this a couple of weeks ago. I live in a small town so I do not put a lot of highway miles on my truck. I also replaced the upper and lower ball joints.

I went on a road trip last week and noticed the front end bounces more than I like! It has always had some bounce since I have owned the truck about a year.

What do I need to do to stop all the bounce?
I have not replaced any of the front steering arms or torsion bars.

You could try stronger shocks. I jacked mine and replaced all 4 shocks with the ones that come on a Z71 full size. suspension is tight as a 12 year old now.
