Everything he ^^^^ suggested, and free moving control arms. With the ball joint not connected to the spindle, raise the ball , then let go. Should drop. You can always slow it back down with the shocks and take travel back out with travel limiters on good starting lines. You should be fighting excessive wheel stands (they will cost you a couple hundredths) , not wheel spin.
