I have the same problem with traction. I am running 3.08 and a posi unit. I might go to a 3.73 set up but was going to look at some softer than stock springs. I have been looking at a compression rate of around 100lbs or slightly less. I think this will help load the axle upon launching from a stop. I am then going to look at weight placement and distribution.
