Haha good question, I am not super savvy with those systems, that is why I kept putting (or what I think) in my OP. All of my occurrences were in 2WD.
I'm with you on the savvy part, that's why I questioned it. Our other vehicle is all wheel drive with traction control so I am assuming it does work on the front as well.

Same thing happens to me from time to time. Oddly, it used to happen a lot more to me when the front lift was stock with factory tires. Slightly bigger tires and a 2.5 inch front lift, and it's mostly gone. I thought it was tire rubbing, too, but I could find no evidence of it.

Man, this just happened to me twice in 3 days. One turning left and one turning right out of a business driveway and hitting a slightly bumpy gutter pan. I was not over accelerating or trying to speed out. Disappointing hopefully a fix is found or it goes away when I end up lifting the truck.

Doing the rear shocks helped. Saving for front right now

Disconnecting the sway bar will help too, I have not done that though

I did the rears first an was so happy with the results I got the Bilstein's for the front. I have 1.8" lift height so the springs are preloaded. Now I wish I waited a little longer an spent the extra on either fox or eibach adjustable height so I could have 1.75-2" of lift without preloading the spring. I think it'd ride better. It's now bad now I just think it would be better. I'd say it feels about the same but with lift.
