Default Assassin Traction bar adjusting?

I installed a set of the SRD assassin traction bars this weekend and a set of 28x10.5 et drags. Major improvements best time before was a 1.69 60ft. went 7.51 in the 1/8th. With bars installed with tires went 1.62 and went 7.36. question is I was told it still had a very light tire hop leaving the line out to the 60ft area. as of right now they are both on the lowest hole settings. Any thoughts on where to go if i can get it to hold I believe 1.5s are easily obtainable. Its a rscb around 4300lbs with me in only other suspension mods are overload spring removed and 2in drop shackles.

Stock shocks?

the tire pressure was 17psi, and I just have some eibach 2in lowering shocks for the back thinking about swapping to rancho 9000 off a Colorado to account for the 4in lowering.
