01 Lightning Dry hops bad (help)

Can anyone out there give me a fix. My rear end hops all over the track and street upon hard acceleration from a stand still. I launch at 1100 and it hops up and down until I back out of the gas to let it settle down. I do have traction bars and they still do it. JDM told me , it might be my shocks in the rear. The truck only has 9000 miles on it. can they go bad that quick? jeff

Ive tried trhee sets of tires slicks also they do it regardless. I've go metco's upper traction devics but all these things were in place before and never a problem and all of a sudden they start doing this.
