Wheel hop

Car started wheelhopping again. For whatever reason it just stopped for a couple months.

Tubular LCA
Tubular Panhard
LCARB
Koni Reds
New stock replacement springs
Kumho tires AST 245/50/16

It didn't hop at all before these mods.

It seemed to start sometime around installing the tires, springs, and shocks.


It seems to happen most when I'm going uphill, low speeds, part throttle. For example 2000 RPM going into second gear, about 10MPH it just goes wild until I let off.

I've posted about this many times on here, just bringing it up again...

Re: Wheel hop

you might check your pinion angle if it has a postive angle that will cause severe wheel hop
