59 truck with axle flip and removed load leaves. Major axle hop! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I recently finished my '59. In the process of restoring I flipped the rear axle and removed a few leaves from my spring pack which Im now regretting since I don't know what I did with those extra leaves. My axle wraps up bigger than **** and hops like crazy under hard accell. I know the cause and how to fix and possible solutions but Im curios what others did since there really isn't a set of slapper bars or anything that bolts up that I know of? Ideas?
