truck pulling to the left

[Jim P]

I have noticed lately that if I really put the hammer down on my truck, it pulls slightly to the left. It is enough that I have to steer a little to the right. Once I let off on the pedal, it goes to the right and I have to steer a little to the left. It does this the worst in 3rd and 4th gear, once I am in 5th it is not as bad.

Could this be a problem in the rear end or just possibly a weak spring or something? My truck does have a gov lock rear end if that makes any diffence.

One of your sneakers bigger than the other?

Checked you tire pressures yet?

Had same thing happen on a 72 Goat. Ended up being broken motor mount bushing on the right side.

Check upper control arm bushings. Having one messed up will change toe out at front suspension unloads (on accel) and loads (after accel is done)

If the front end is tracking to that wheel, a wandering condition will result.
