just don't spin the tires...lol, check your rear spring pack for bad bushings cracked broken or missing leaves and if everything is in good shape a set of ladder bars would certainly cure the problem, wheel hop is caused my axle wrap. also do you have a lift on the truck rear lifting blocks can certainly intensify wheel hop. if you have rear blocks take them out and replace the springs with true lift springs.
