In first gear and rolling smashing the gas the tires would spin for half a sec then started to hop( only tired this once). easing into full throttle the tires would just spin until like 5k rpms then they would wheel hop again. Did the same thing again except once i felt the wheels begin to hop i ripped the 1-2 shift, they spun hard for a sec started to get a bit sideways(before it would keep hopping) then the wheel hop returned. Yes i had wheel hop in the rain( have heard this from several people) but the wheel hop did not feel as bad as before it, felt like the car was actually fighthing not to hop and wasnt as violent. Pre axles the it was like HOP HOP HOP HOP HOP HOP, post axles its feels more like hop,hop,hop,hop,hop and like if the car was trying to not hop, but did.

i tried up 80% percent throttle til redline yesterday when the roads began to dry and they did not hop.

DRY ROAD TEST: alright guys so far i have been able to test these axles out in snow and rain over the past few days. In 3 inches plus of snow there is no hop. In the rain/snow slush depending on throttle percentage and rainfall/ occumilation the hop is greatly reduced or eliminated. So now onto the dry road test. I noticed since yesterday once the roads began to dry i was able to give the car more and more WOT though the rpms with out wheel hop.

Today i had to make a trip to chicago and on the high way with the roads dry i was able to go wot til redline( i ran out 4th) with no hop. In 2nd and 3rd got nothing but wheels spin. As i was just about to get back to work i was on what seemed like to be a very dry road. Hmmm perfect opportunity to dry these suckers out from a dig. I checked my mirrors and the road and there was no on comming traffic or traffic behind he.

I quickly brought the car to a complete stop reved to about 4k and slipped the clutch very aggressively and the car just roasted the tires with the rear fishtailing back and forth, babied 2nd a bit and the roasting continued WITH ABSOLUTELY NO WHEEL HOP. let off in the upper rpms of second, i looked in the rear view and saw 2 nice long black patches hell yeah. I turned on the next street and went back to the same starting position. Reved the car again to about 4k dumped the clutch, no wheel hop again, fishtailed alot ripped second the tires kept screaming and no wheel hop with even longer black stipes on the road again. Went back and lined up again with the same result, this time i ripped third and the car finally caught traction again! Looked I went back and drove by very slow to admire my 3 overlaying burnouts! Thanks G-force!

Just waiting now on my Monster clutch to arrive at modern muscle, along with some sticky tirres, my custom grind cam and warmer weather that 30 degrees. This summer is starting to look alot better! Yes i will be going to the drag strip this year.

I didn't even need to test it again. You can honestly tell right away that they were going to work from that initial lite blip of the throttle.

Nice job Chris, thank you for getting me the axle's and parts asap. I appreciate it. Great product.
