Post subject:  Frankenlift handling question

I have the Franlenlift , 32 inch tires, arb front bumper, and the trail ready rear bumper installed.

During acceleration the rear of the Jeep drops on one side or the other causing the Jeep to veer left or right. The handling
otherwise is fine .

Is this normal ??

It has to do with the torque of the engine trying to twist the unibody and wieght transfer,under hard acceleration this is normal.Even more with the added wieght of the steel bumbers

I don't have pics yet, I want to install the snorkel first and have all of the spit and polish work complete. Then I will
send out and post some pics.
