Default Wheel hop...

I have changed my LCA's and Panhard. Anyone tell me what to change next to get rid of wheel hop on a hard start? It's making my undercarriage sound like it's getting slammed with a sledgehammer! TIA.

Did you use relocation brackets on your LCA? If so and you are still getting wheel hop you want want to think about a torque arm next.

You can get the Edlebrock T/A pretty cheap from summit. Like $170 shipped, I have not had a problem with mine.

Traction will cure wheelhop. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

check your transmission mount and make sure that it is not broken. That can cause some issues. Had to have mine replaced. Got rid of a lot of banging, but still have an issue with getting traction. doh (Homer voice)
