Hey everyone ill give you my truck specs then give you my problem.

2024 Silverado 2500HD 4x4 6.6 gas 10 speed allison crew cab 6.5' box 

When in snow conditions in 4wd or 2wd . Wet pave or even dry pavement under the right conditions im getting massive wheel hop/ axle wrap in the rear end .more often when im pulling a trailer . I ran traction bars on f350s i had in the past but i shouldnt have this issue with this new of a truck . I currently habe 49 000 km on it . I use the truck for work . I cannot find any loose hardware ( u bolts, spring hardware, shocks look good ) 

Is my springs weak already ? I couldnt find any broken leafs in the pack. Any9ne else have this issue . I was thinking of just throwing traction bars on it but i would also like to find the cause of the issue

Traction bars or stay out of the throttle some. Your tires are working, if'n they ain't spinning!

I drive for a living . Hard to stay out of the throttle when your climbing hills in the woods or going up a back side of a mountian with 10 to 18 000 pounds behind you . Its getting axle wrap under part throttle climbing hills

My 2016 half ton can do the same thing in the right conditions. Axle wrap or wheel hop is well known on these trucks, atleast to me anyway. Especially common when people add power to these trucks.

 

Leaf spring trucks just do this in my opinion without traction bars.
