Default pulling my 6.9 idi for the first time

the local county fair in my area is having a truck pull this year and ive just bought my first diesel and im interested in pulling it once. i was thinking about buildinig traction bars for it just because of axle hop i get anyways and i was wondering what would be some good tings to do to my truck. i have an 85 6.9 idi regular cab 4x4. i mean i was just gonna turn the pump up 1 flat and do the trac bars but i was wondering if there were any suggestions
