I just put in a powertrax no slip into the rear of my jeep.
Now when I put power down it pushes to the to the right and when i let off it pushes to the left. any ideas in the cause and how to fix?

sounds like youre only powering one side of the axle. I hope you remembered to put the springs in both sides. Did you do the clearance block check when you were all done?

Lockers tend to move vehicles side to side when accelerated hard or decelerated especially in corners. If you haven't driven a lock rig this can take awhile to get use to the pushing.
