rear sways a little to much! My car likes to sway to the left under heavy acceleration and turning. I have an adjustable panhead bar. The busings on that are fine. I checked the rear control arms and their bushings are fine too. Any ideas on what else my cars the rear to sway.
Ok lets get a little more definite on the description..,...
Is it....
1: "swaying" like the entire rearend of the car is moving to the left.
2: "swaying" like the body is rolling to the left.
3: is your rear squating a lot under the heavy accel?
4: when your make a fast left turn does the back of the car seem to lift up or squat?

Your description is somewhat vague.
I have seen a broken gear carrier cause "sway" under load. It sheared right off at the carrier bearing and would walk out under load causing a rear toe change and steering effect. Car drove perfect otherwise and busted carrier was barely visible until the bearing caps were taken off.
