    Get ruff stuffs kit and have it fitted to your truck.

    All the other designs are flawed in some way.

    A lift, some wheels, some tires, some performance, some cosmetic and then audio.
    How about beefier rear spring leaf pack instead? Like:

    Honestly, aside from the traction bar, spring clamps did more to lessen my axle wrap than any other solution.

    Trac bar is the one true fix, but if the budget is tight, I'd just clamp the springs.
