Default cruise not working

I have a 2004 dodge 2500 4x4 diesel, it has a 6 inch lift and 35's. The cruise doesnt work on it, it will work once per key cycle but only holds for like 5 seconds and you cant reset it again. I have changed the servo, vacuum lines, clock spring as well as the throttle sensor and still doesn't work..any suggestions? Is there an aftermaket cruise I can put on if I can;t fix this? Thanks

My 01 had a similar problem a while back. It turned out to the wire going to the switch had pulled loose from the connector inside the steering column when I used the tilt… Maybe worth a look.
