Yah, the e locker seems to help. I have still seen a bit of torque steer with it engaged when there is a large traction difference between the front tires. Like one is on dry pavement and the other is on wet pavement. I just remember it because a guy thought he was going to cut me off from a stoplight. It just kinda pulled to one side a little bit. I mostly got it for increased mud and snow traction, but I have found it has other uses

Adjustable shocks (set stiff), and dropping the torsen bars all the way down helped me the most launching in 4wd. With the torsen bars at stock height or raised to clear bigger tires the front wheels are toeing in when launching. Lowering the torsen bars toes out the front wheels slightly and gets rid of the jumping to the left & right when launching. My best 60' time is a 1.63, but my fastest run of 11.95 only had a 1.73 sixty foot time.

Did some runs last night with the weight removed. Still does the side to side thing, but not as bad. Looks like less weight transfer is what I'm after.

Removing 175 lbs really made this thing feel faster! I don't know if I'll ever put it back.
