I was told last night that it could be u bolts, Leafsprings, Bushings, Shackle or he said the T axle loose? it has traction bars on it also. I dont feel it as much off the line but 25-60mph and hammer it then it pulls, and vere's to the other lane a bit it just does not feel right?.
Which direction does it pull/shift? (i.e. which direction does the rear end seem to want to go?)
I'm far from an expert, but this doesent sound to me like a case of "one-wheel-wonder", especially since it doesent involve wheelspin. I would think its more likely that under heavy load one or more of the bushings in the rear suspension are flexing, allowing the rearend to get out of alignment. I would check them again, and make sure to clean them off so road grime isnt hiding a cracked/worn bushing.

BTW are you using lift shackels? I've always heard they were bad, but never any specifics. Maybe they flex?

Just my .02
