Yup, and the usual reason for no rear end travel is the suspension is bound up someplace, or the shocks on the rear are completely wrong.... Good weight transfer that "stays" well out past the 60' timers, preferably all the way till just prior to the upshift is essential for keeping the tires planted. The science of a leaf spring sez it won't do that without housing floaters and ladder bars....a multi-leaf spring IMO only compounds the problem, hard enough to keep a mono leaf car planted, let alone the results of all those leafs in a multi leaf fighting against each other....
