Wheel Hop
Sometimes when I try to whip out my back end I get really bad wheel hop. Could this be due to over inflated tires, or under inflated tires?

Re: Wheel Hop
I was told it was a bad lower control arm. I never did get new ones.

Re: Wheel Hop
its not really a "bad" LCA..its just the factory ones kinda blow..i had the same problem with my stock suspension and open 3.08 ...i recommend some tubular or boxed LCAs ..and maybe a torque arm..i went with rksport's tubular ones..this is a simple bolt-on mod..now with those (and the rest of my setup) i can pretty much burn em as long as i want<b>12 SECOND DUAL STAGE DRY NITROUS POWERED 98 A4 V6 CAMARO<br /><a href=\"http://www.mysickcamaro.50megs.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.MySickCamaro.50megs.com</a><br />Best ET: 12.82@103<br />Best MPH: 104.7<br />Best 60\': 1.75 - Stock TC</b><br /> </font><blockquote><font size=\"1\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">quote:</font><hr /><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">Originally posted by Shodown:<br /><strong>1DV6 runs 12\'s...enough said. </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">Comment

Re: Wheel Hop
same here, i had bad a&& case of wheelhop, i put on a pair of lakewood lower control arms, and it was totally gone. the factory ones are made out of cheap flexible steel, and are structurally not very solid, being just a c-channel shape, just pick up a pair of LCA's from whatever brand you prefer, and i guarantee it will disappear. its the simplest installation too, just two bolts for each control arm pop off the old ones and stick on the new ones. btw.. its got nothing to do with over or under inflated tires.Last edited by astroglyph; 04-07-2006, 12:45 AM.Comment

I’m new. I actually don’t own a Camaro or firebird. I do have a 2000 Camaro 3.8 fly by throttle and 4l60e. This is installed in a 1980 Triumph TR7...2 weeks ago -
Not much going on, replaced my Kenwood double din stereo with a Pioneer double din, the Kenwood had problems. Then replaced my power inverter for my reverse...2 weeks ago
