thats not normal unless ur diff is not located properly and is on an angle causing ur ute to crab along...lol

check locating pins are in correct place and u bolts are tight

otherwise have u taken ur steering wheel off lately?

Ok no one has asked you this so I will....You do know what we mean when we talk about "the pins" right? And did you lower the front all? Cause if you lowered the front to match the back you will need to get an alignment.
