rear torque steer

[smokin03]

I have an 03' stock MM with 68k on it. In normal city driving feels like im always adjusting my steer. On highway speeds of 65 and up, on acceleration the rear end pulls left and when I pull off the gas it straightens out! I've had everything checked and all is solid with no play. I do have 235 50 18 on the back instead of the 245 55 18. ANY IDEAS THIS IS KILLING ME!

Sounds like bad rear control arm bushings.

I've got the same problem but there's nothing wrong.. :D

You rear control arms bushing have gone bad. Time for a Mod!

could it possibly be a rack issue some how?

I would start by looking at the upper arms, those bushings are a lot smaller and I have seen a couple sets fail.

Good call, they may actually be worn :D

So ended up new rear control arm, rear axle bearing and seals, watts link and shocks! Torque pull gone, thankfully! Seems like a couple of the bushings were somehow seized and the emerg. brake was hanging up on one side. The bearing had a small bikt of play so figured I change em while I was back there. FYI KYB shocks are really nice, next weekend struts to finish off the project. THANKS TO ALL for the help!
