Is it normal for the rear end to "wander" under acceleration?
When I accelerate really hard in 2nd and third gear - the rear end often feels like it's "fish tailing" even though I'm not getting any wheel spin.
Wondering if this is normal? is the possible the rear links are winding up under torque or something? Anyone else get this? stock 2016 2ss manual. - I have done a race alignment, wheels tires and lowering springs. |

This happens to me when it's raining. Or on cold tires when I floor it from a stop. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Mine does that. Get that squirmy feel, lots of torque back there and lots of soft rubber bushings.
Just power through it , lol. BMR Sway Links are on my Xmas list

love the smell of burning tire and a little butt shake, the smell of victory.

Yep there is a lot of soft rubber back there and the rear suspension links are made out of stamped steel... all of that stuff flexes. I really used to feel the squirm when powering out of 2nd and 3rd gear corners. I was sure it was my tires until I upgraded the suspension. I would suggest a rear cradle bushing lockout kit, upgraded trailing arms and toe rods. All of that should eliminate most of the flex you'd get on the street. I got mine from BMR and love them, very high quality components.

that said, wheel spin does make the rear wander (both wheels will spin due to the differential lock up so there is nothing to keep it from going sideways but the traction control, or a good driver) also, don't "power through it" with the traction control turned off (unless you know what you are doing)... there are plenty of youtube videos of Mustangs doing burnouts... see how the rear end comes around when the driver doesn't take their foot off the gas. |
