Unhappy Back axle rolling ideas anyone???

I have a 98 F150 XLT, 4.6 V8 Triton with 3" body lift, and a 4" suspension lift with 38" super swampers. My problem is I purchased the truck already lifted and now have a problem with my rear axle rolling when I shift from park to reverse and then to drive. I live in St. Louis and went to Big Foot and they said I needed ladder bars from spring to body, the only problem they said was for that height and tire size they don't make them. Is this true or does anyone know of a aftermarket company that i can contact or is there another way of keeping my axle from rotating. Help please,
Dennis

Welcome to the site!

Perhaps you can find a shop to fabricate a set of ladder bars that will fit?

Cool

Thank you, I went to another 4x4 dealer and he going to fix me up Tuesday. What happend is it was rolling so bad that the wedges under the block are actually starting to come out the sides like it split in half or somthing. He said who ever owned it before didn't install properly and i'm lucky my axle hasn't broke. So i don't need the ladder bars after all. Thanks again,
Dennis
