Front Axle limiting strap

Have any of you guys made your own or used a Axle limiting strap to help keep the front of our truck down when launching in 4x4 at the dragstrip?

Would this help some of the wheel hop we get when we launch?

Yes. Strap the front and block the rear.

Just take a ratchet strap and strap the front spring to the frame right behind the axle.
