Lowered Front/Stock Rear Spring Traction Issue
I had a full pro-kit on my car w/re-valved bilsteins on the car for a couple years. Well, like any aging celebrity, my rear stated to sag and look horrible. I also had a clearance issue due to LTs and Y-pipe.
SO i put the stock springs back in the rear to jack the *** up a little bit, but it seems like i have less traction pulling onto roads now ... the rears slides very noticeably.
The tires are new, and i have an adjustable torque arm among other suspension parts ... why is this happening and what can i do to solve it?
I really don't want to put the pro-kits springs back in ...

Based on what you are experiencing, I would guess you already have LCAs and brackets and you didn't adjust them when you raised the rear back up. That would cause what you described. Move the LCA's to the top setting in the brackets (or whichever hole gets them closest to level) and problem solved.
