Going to take more than shocks to make it hook. With out going to coil overs you may be over sprung. Shocks and spring rates work together. Then working on placing weight (batteries and other components) to improve the front to rear bias helps. Then the front shocks and spring rates have just as much to help as the back. These trucks also have a lot of flex in the frame. That can hinder traction. It all has to work together.
