i know on the maxx, it matters where if you put the tierods on top or bottom.

move the truck up and down through the suspension range and watch your tires, do they toe in and out as the truck moves up and down? if so you probably have the tierods mounted the wrong way.

also a little toe in inthe rear and toe out on the front will help it track straiter.
 
Tires/toe also play a part. If your too aggressive either way with your toe, it will be either really twitchy (too much toe in) or really wandery (too much toe out). Chevron tires tend to make it a bit wandery regardless what you do IME.

What "high torque" servo are you using? Are all your ball cups/ends nice and tight? Are your pivot ball cups too tight/loose on the ends of the arms?
 
i thinks its a mg995 144 oz steering servo and everything else is screwed and bolted as tight as i can make it
