Re: Wheel hop
That's one good thing about the coil rear trucks. Traction bars are your quick fix. Is the axle over the springs for your 4" drop? That helps wrap compared to axle under springs. McGauphy's offers a reasonable solution
http://www.googleadservices.com/page...Fseid%3Dsrese1 I used this design made by someone else in the '80s on a 500 hp '71 Blazer with 4" blocks and 37" Swampers (TH350). They took the wrap out. But that truck got run hard in the mud, not on dry pavement and that was an automatic. Still, that's what they'll do with blocks and tall tires.
