Default mcgaughys 4/7 drop question

my truck "shimmys" side to side while driving....minor, but it's there. at almost all speeds. When i got the kit, i was told the "drive shaft vibration issue" had been solved and they had a new flip kit. not sure i believed them, but the shop that installed the kit really wanted to use the mcgaughys. would this side to side be that drive shaft vibration...or maybe due to the mcgaughys shocks? it also seems to take bumps VERY poorly.
