I don't mean to be a smart @$$, but a little less accelerator would a lot easier than try to modify your truck. My wife's Minivan will do the same thing when I hit a water puddle and goose it, so swapping out the pumpkin in the rear end probably won't help.

Just let it take off on its own dont give it gas until about 10 mph, I can take off the line and not spin and I dont have any tread on my tires!
