you need to get the cognito braces i can bet your center link is bending and the braces will keep them from doing that my truck use to do what you are talking about and not that i put the braces on it jumps a little but is only because of the engine torque i think and it goes straight after i correct it

and i really don't think you need it in 4wd since you don't have a huge programmer and you are running stock gears i would try a few 2wd launches and see how that goes also are you running 37 or 38 that will make a difference also

im running 35's and if i launch in 2wd i just spin the tires... even though the programmers not big i can break the tire loose if im doing 45mph or less... thats why i launch in 4wd.

Damn.... might be a center of gravity issue too seeing that your truck is lifted pretty high. You might have to always launch in 4 dig to keep from spining. You should prolly invest in some braces otherwise you are gonna some stuff up.
