Default p2 v70 d5 pulling under accelaration

Howdy chaps. new post.

my d5 has been mapped some time and goes extremely well, being the 163 5speed.
have now got a slight issue, after replacing front drop links i noticed after few weeks when you are cruising say 70mph and just blip the throttle to pass.
i get a pulling to the right slightly then back to the left as you come back of the power. its not torque steer, it definately something else.
so before i start stripping down, any ideas to give me a head start would be appreciated.
capable of doing work myself as self taught last 30 years.

Worn out front lower control arm bushings can cause the car to drift one way when accelerating and the other when decelerating.
