Suggestions on setup

[05chevy]

I have been having problems with my front end raising alot when I pull. Keys all the way down, drop shackle in the rear, springs clamped, bump stops, traction bars. I have everything needed for pulling just trying to figure out why my front lifts so bad? Should I put the stock shackles back in? Any suggestions?

Looks like you have a lot of rear squat with the sled on you . Are you allowed to run suspension stops ? You could also take out the front bump stops and replace them with solid 2" cold rolled steel ( Installed only when your going to pull ) .

I have rear bump stops set at 1" travel. The front stops are out. What would the blocks do for me?

They would raise the front end so you could keep your hitch height and make it easier to drive in the pits with the torsion bars down . Here's a video of mine from this weekend with 2" stops on the front .

Didn't do too well at the pull ( got 6th ) but that was my driving's fault not truck setup .
