I installed a set of traction control springs from Helwig. Helped, but not enough. Then installed a set of Tuff Country traction bars I got from J.C. Whitney. Hop is much reduced now, even with 35" 265/70-19.5's.

Going to need Traction Bars to eliminate that wheel hop... Been looking at the GDP bars, but I have airbags and don't think they will mount with airbags (so dissapointed, they look good, just won't fit). Maybe superlift if they mount underneath the leaf springs and don't interfere with the Airbags...

Our traction bars don't interfere with airbags, lift kits, or other aftermarket accessories, and they're available for 1st, 2nd & 3rd gen Rams - even the Ford guys want them for their trucks!
