well been raining all day . and bored so i finished the truck mostly.....
i got a few thing to do still like a new bigger battery the little 2000mh airplane lipo 'dosen't
liek to pull heavy stuff and lift heavy dump beds. and putting a headache on the back and some kind of heavy springs or bumpers onthe rear it sinks alot when the trailer on it.

You might try doubling your spring pack.
- drill out the center pin and re stack using two sets.
On the down side it tends to increase you frame height though.
