little traction, bouncing around

Anyone else have this problem?...
When accelerating (moderatly) on a rough on ramp or a slightly bumpy road, i easily loose traction when i hit a bump. Do i just have that much torque?
f350 drw at about 75psi in rear.

I think that it is normal my truck has 40 inch tires on it and mine bust loose on gravel real bad and they bust loose on pavement pretty easy there is no weight for the kind of torque that the diesels have. its normal.

Yep it's normal. And it get's worse the more mods you do!! I run around with 2 150lb concrete lentels in the bed just so I can drive in the rain! And it helps it ride a bit better too!
