Trailing arm mount location

[hardhead]

We are installing a 9" ford in my sons 66 at the moment and wanted ideas from some of you experienced guys on the TA mount. Before I weld the perch's on the rear axle now would be a great time to remove the front mounts and raise them if it is worth the effort. We have a stock LQ4/4L60 combo with 255/55/18 tires and it just shreds them now. Will raising the TA mount help with traction?

Raising the front mount with increase anti-squat. It would potentially improve traction by forcing the tires into the ground. I would do it.

Any other ideas while I'm there? I'm open to more fabrication if needed. I will probably build some tubular TA's that are adjustable soon.

I would probably go with a bigger tire first. 255 isn't that wide.
