I went out for a drive to run some gas out before going to the strip, and the car was significantly jumping left on accel then settling back right on decel. This is happening even at 60mph stabbing the throttle maybe halfway. While this is going on the steering felt funny. ... I just put my 15" DR's on if that matters.

Thanks for any input.

I'd suggest check the bushings in your rear control arms as well as make sure the bolts are torqued down on them.

I thought that too, but I just retorqued my control arms last week. It's not a real violent feeling, just feels like it shifts left then back to the right....

I'm was thinking it might just be some sort of torque steer accentuated by the big sidewall of the 15" tires.... but shouldn't it torque to the right on accel??? or am I thinking backwards?
