Tuning and the slipper is the key. If tunedright and the slipper is tight enough the Jato will wheelie extremely easy with little to no effort. If its not tuned right you cant wheelie for crap. How old is the truck?

The more you run it the better it gets but it still may not be tuned to its optimum yet. Give it some time and keep tuning it little by little.

wheelies look kewl I guess but I would rather see a truck squat and take off like a rocket transferring all the torque to forward motion...if you want wheelies in addition to what is mentioned above you can stiffen up the rear suspension with heavier shock oil and stronger springs
