  • Wheel hop issue

    I am i having an issue with wheel hop. It only happens when im doing about 10 or 15 mph in first gear and smash it and the wheels spin somewhat but dont break loose and the rear end hops up and down just a little bit. I already have BMR traction control bars in the rear along with an auburn posi and the stock 3.23 gears. How else could i get rid of the wheel hop? Could i get the BMR traction control bar relocation brackets or what?

            I installed a set of LCA relocators and my wheel hop is gone.

              If you have LCA's the relocatoin brackets will be a good idea, best thing I added for traction is UMI tunnel mounted AJD. TQ arm, I can't spin my tires out of first even reving to 2200 RPMS just takes off and chirps 2nd and 3rd gear never have spinning problems just with water. This is with 3.73's.

                Yea i have lower control arms and they helped a lot because it used to do it more. And no the car is not lowered but that is on my list of things to do. I think i will give the relocation brackets a shot and then see what happens. Also on the to do list is a bmr torque arm so i imagine that will help as well.
