i think that the "no control" is because something is not symmetric...

I'm going to do alignment to start. The caltracs are barely touching spring. How should they be? If you notice when it goes to third gear on 10.8 vid it goes sideways pretty bad. That's what happend on street and Hard to control. Wierd that it is constant even on the blue truck you can see this happen on rolling burnout. Sometimes I think the posi unlocks and gives uneven power.

It has complete drivetrain and rear from blue truck. Posi is eaton about 4 years old. If that's a likely cause I can get a trutrac installed.

i am a firm believer in a TRUTRAC.
but no need to spend money on stuff untill you figure out EXACTLY what it is causing it...
i would look at the axle tubes first(bent)... then rear springs... then traction bars.... then frame.. and if all that is good.. swap to a trutrac

BUT if it did it in the blue truck.. i will say rear end bent or posi taking a
