My friend gave me some coil springs that go over the rear axle and to the
frame, I think they are for heay loads... like $20-30 at advance auto....
Even tho my truck was runnin slower, I had NO traction probs what so
ever.... Not once did I spin them off the line... I took them right off
his Ranger, and put them on mine, they are somewhat compressed all the time,
but I think it made a difference... and the ride is frickin ruff as heck =-)
These and the Traction bars may be the key... E-mail me off list and I'll
try and get some pics to ya...
