Traction problems

No flaming here! That was the hot set up when no other shocks were available. If your CE shocks are long enough I would work with what you have for now. Front segments should be clamped, to control axle wind up. Rear of the spring just holds up the car. How much front travel do you have? Need a good 5 inches to get weight transfer. Getting the front spring eye lowered may help as well, its easy enough to swap them from side to side.
