  • Crazy vibrating, may be wheel hop

    Tried doing a hard launch, started squealing the tires then the whole car starting bumping up and down. Is that wheel hop? If so, what's the best remedy?

    I have 275/40/17, new shocks and springs, and that's about it, suspension wise. 130k on the odo.

    My car does it all the time... not sure of a good fix though.

        After doing a bit of searching after posting, I'm going to change out my LCA's. I:ve had some UMI sitting around for almost two years. Good link techsan, thanks.

          Wheel hop is commonly known for breaking and damaging parts. You might want to check out that link listed above for fixes.

            LCA relocation brackets, new rear LCA bushings. thats it. My v8 doesnt wheel hop with stock LCAs, those are fine.
