This summer I installed a cam, lifters and low side fuel kit and boosted the power to 900 plus and the wandering side to side became almost uncontrollable.
As long as the tires were slipping it would track ok but when they hooked up it would immediately pull the rear end to the left and then back to the right repeatedly.
Working with my suspension guy we determined the toe in was changing drastically under hard acceleration causing the issue.
Upon examination we found the rubber bushings in the stock flimsy toe rod to be very soft allowing the movement.
I ordered the Toe rods from BMR and had them in two days, installed and they completely cured the issue.
This is good info. I’m in the same boat powerwise now and experienced this “sway” a couple of times now...very unnerving. Of note, with my regular 2SS, I don’t have the eLSD, but am still having the same issue. So definitely not a diff calibration (at least in my case).

I already have the BMR differential lockout installed which helped some, and just ordered up BMR trailing & control arms. If it still persists, I’ll give the toe rods a try. Thanks!
