rear suspension question

in the interest of full disclosure the rear of my truck is lowered with the brackets that specialtyretail sells here..... now, on to the question. Since lowering it I had to cut off the bump stop bracket because I was sitting right on it. Now I have a few inches of suspension travel. When I press the accelerator something in the rear is shifting. The truck goes to the right and then when I let off it settles back straight.

I've been under it and everything is tight... u-bolts, leaf spring bolts (leafs have new bushings), probably needs new u-joints soon.

Could it be motor mounts? I don't think that would cause the shifting in the read end though.
