Improperly installed, off brand parts, something else must clearly be worn out to be causing part failure so quickly. Check the pitman, tie rods. I had no shimmy or issues on my S10 after/before lift. I know our gear boxes are junk but that wont cause that part to wear out so fast. Do you have pictures of the arm?
