wheel hop and traction question

[89notch5spd]

what could i do to stop the wheel hop in my notch? It does have stiffer shocks but i dont know any more detail than that. The car hops bad sometimes under hard acceleration.

Do you have your Quad Shocks on the Car?

+1. check to make sure there are quad shocks and make sure they're good.

i'd address this problem really soon man. my bro didnt have quads on his car and it wheel hopped badly. he died because of it. (not trying to bring gloom to the thread, just making a point)

Quad shocks or early slappers bars. Pinion snubber worked for me. maybe not the best cure, but it worked.

Either the quads are gone or they are worn... IMO

1. Check if quads are there and in good shape.

2. Check tires. I switch tires and my wheel hop went away considerably..(I don't have quads on my notch)

3. Check control arms. The rubber bushings can be shot. My 91 notch had 108K on it...4cyl car too....and my bushings were shot. I went aftermarket UCA and LCA and that got rid of all my wheel hop.

Here's a vid of how bad mine was. I put on new quads and new tires, and i now have no wheel hop.
