please recommend what I should do with traction control devices and tires. I will replace the ring/pinion this winter with either a 10-bolt 8.5" or 12 bolt setup running a 3.73 gear.
thanks.

Well years ago when I was a kid we used to fill the trunk full of green wood and put on a set of tire chains.
Worked better than a 4 wheel drive.
But if you want more traction add more weight to rear with a locking rear end.
I do not think lower gear rear end will help on traction.
