Running 93 and tune. When I WOT on pavement from a slow roll, my back end seems to hop 3 to 5 times. This can't be good as it feels rough on the drivetrain, correct?

Can something break eventually?
What causes it?
Can you eliminate it?

I have HD leafs and my bed is pretty much empty with spare underneath.

And yeah, I know I can prevent it by not doing this but that is not my question as I am already anticipating someone will respond with that. :)

Okay was on my phone when first posting and searching sucks. Now on a computer found a previous thread about the subject, very interesting read. I've replaced my rear leafs so that doesn't necessarily actually resolve it. Guess I will take it easy, I really don't want to break my drive shaft or rear axle. I am sure with having a tune, those leaf and rear ICONS along with a bump stop with the **** dealer near me when it comes to mods, it won't be a warranty job and out of pocket instead.
