Hello
I own a 2010 Wrangler Sahara and I recently installed the teraflex budget boost lift with spacers and shock adapters and my steering has become loose. I will be coming around a turn at 45 and
while on the curve my tires will turn more when I have not moved the wheel. Also I need to constantly adjust the wheel while driving. Also
after a turn my steering wheel will not be straight but my wheels will. I need a solution becuase I can not continue to drive my jeep like this. Any one have any ideas on how to fix this or has anyone else had this issue after installing this Lift??

That is that problem I am having. Will the caster bring off make my steering wheel loose also?

caster being off will make your steering feel flighty, but in general with a 2.5" budget boost you don't have caster issues. usually caster becomes an issue when you go 3.5" or more.
I've helped several friends install budget boosts and caster didn't change enough to make it an issue.
did you adjust and tighten the drag link adjuster so the bolts clamp side lines up with the open seam on the adjustment tube?
did you make any other changes beside what you posted in your beginning post? loosen any other components and forget to tighten them?
I'd also remove the spacers and see if that makes a difference.
if your steering wheel starts in the centered position and after you make a turn it's no longer centered, you have something loose or a damaged steering pump. if your caster was off that much, you'd still end up with a centered steering wheel once you stop.
when you're stationary and turn, do you hear any whining noise? if you center your wheel then turn full left and full right , does the wheel remain centered or has it shifted to off-center?
it's easy to check your caster angle using a $6 magnetic angle finder -this will help:
