I have found so much information that contradicts that I am confused I am not looking for more rear traction, rather I am trying to stop traction rolling. I am running maifield's setup. I think may just go with stiffer rear sway bar.
Tons of conflicting info on that. Best I've heard was that it doesn't really change the roll center as much as it changes the bind in the geometry or upper link.

Like Cain said, best thing to do is try it yourself and see if it fits your style. You can research it for so long before having a definitive understanding that you may have another truck by then
