Scooter's right. I ran 10-12 psi on my 72 BBC Pickup. More air causes uneven wear (hey, that rhymes) and sometimes bouncing. I thought maybe you were running less than that. Try dropping the pressure a bit.
Mickey's sportsman tires are not radials. They have a radial version out now, though.
Bigdude also has some good advice. Those MT fatties are NO good in the wet. I hit some heavy water in my '72 PU and went across three lanes of interstate and and both shoulders before I got it straightened out. Luckily, there was zero traffic.
Try the lower pressure, and make sure you don't have a trailing arm or something else loose in the rear suspension.Jack

The first model car I built was a 32 Ford roadster by Revell in the mid 50's.
How did you get hooked on cars?
