I was wondering if having the correct pinion angle set up on the torque arm would help reduce the chances of brake wheel hop. What should the pinion be set at, i have stock height with 25" tall tires?

I don't think the size of the Back Tires are really going to affect how the Axle is sitting..

yeah. your rear tire size shouldn't have any affect. it's all about how the axle sits in conjunction with the rest of the suspension.

so any recommendations for stock ride height? spohn told me about -1 that sound about right?

shaun

most guys set it at -2 to start out with.
my car is lowered and the only stock piece back there is the phb which i need to get lol and my tq arm is the aj edelbrock and its set at -1/2 and my car hooks good at the track if i heat up my nittos good and there 275/40/17's.
since your not lowered go with -1 that should work.

I don't think being lowered calls for a different pinion angle, sure lowering will change it slightly. The -# is so that underload it will, in theory, be closer to 0 degrees.

Mines at -2 and Im lowered w/ the heater hose mod.

whats the heater hose mod?

Taking the Isolaters out of the Rear Springs, and slipping some Heater Hose over the top Coils of the Spring. It lowers the Car about half an inch.
