Need help bad have a 13 sho. It’s been pulling to the right under acceleration and back when letting of gas, and randomly pulling to the right when your driving down the road just had all the suspension replaced expect for tie rod end, bearings and struts. I’m at a loss possibly subframe bushings or motor mounts. HELP

Ok how many miles - and this might be a wild guess and you seem to need one right now.... Engine and transmission mounts. They start to wear we can get wheel hops on heavy take off. There will be more to come.

Ok guys found the cause to my car suddenly pulling to the left and back under acceleration, apparently there is a lose bolt on the lower control arm on the passenger side. Giphy

One thing my SHO used to do that no other car I've owned did was it would float around left and right at speeds above 150mph. Was such a creepy feeling.

You should have been around many moons ago when you had the big heavy v8's. Even with depowered v8's in the late 70's-90's, those boats floated at much lower speeds. White knuckle driving

I have experienced some 360 driving when pushing those 400 cubic inch boats around streets.... White knuckle is an understatement: p

I wound an 89 full size bronco up to 110 in high school, a buddy was in front of me at his limiter of 107 and I was creeping up on him was the only way i knew (good ol 85mph speedo was reading "D"). brick in the wind with sloppy steering and a bulletproof teenage mindset. i survived it all somehow but now that ive driven cars that are supposed to do those speeds, the phrase "on rails" means so much more but ill never forget the days of man vs. machine pushing something to limits it was never meant for.

I think this is a compound problem, starting with having the right tires for the speed, to good stiff swaybar lifter arms, and stiff coils on your rear shocks.

I had some serious float, and a knock, that was my sway bar lifter arms. I still have some with my daily all seasons, and uneven suspension stiffness on my rear wheels (things to fix means the car is always improving).
