Default Saff 4x4 pulling to the right under hard acceleration

Very noticeable when wet, but also noticeable in the dry. Does this mean my front transfer box is stuffed?

Should't think that it will be anything to do with the transfer box, as stated above have a look at the front bushes, also track rod ends, steering rack, and engine mounts, make sure its all tight

Common fault with cossie when ream beam bushes are worn, not sure which though, when you back off it pulls back to the left though correct? When mine pulled under power it was an elongated whole on a bush apparently, never looked just passed it onto a garage to sort.Check with Goodes or other to confirm which bushes it may be?
