bmr cb005 and links still hopping

[robmustang201528]

I have the BMR links and lockout kit and Im 99% $sure it wheel hops even harder then it did before I put the BMR parts on here. It feels like Im on the track when I'm playing around on the street. I don't know if it's the links or the lockout kit that makes it wheel hop so hard. I was thinking about taking the arms off but keep the bushings on that it came with and keep the BMR links on the car. I'm thinking maybe since it's so stiff, and there is no give anymore that all that wheel hop force is finding the next weakest link of the IRS and making wheel hop even more. I'm thinking about taking it all off and going back to stock also. I don't remember the wheel hop being that hard when on the street. It used to just spin the tires off. Also i have a pair of worn out nitto invo tires on the back as well, could worn out tires cause wheel hop?What do u think I should do? thanks

did you strengthen the diff bushings?

 

[robmustang201528]

Nope. Scared of the NVH

Yep mine wheel hops more than stock after all my Steeda suspension. Wtf?

 

[robmustang201528]

Exactly some bullshit. I'm about to take this stuff off. I bought it because I was wheel hopping my ass off at the track so I bought the BMR stuff and 1st pass on a track broke a halfshaft smh

What all do you have?

 

[Niz55]

What all do you have?

All of Steeda suspension parts except springs. I have sportlines.

Don't get me wrong the car feels much much tighter but wheels hop is not fixed.

Dang thats crazy. Which level diff inserts do you have? I'm starting to think twice about the purchase that I'm about to make.

Did you guys reach out to Steeda and BMR? I know David and Kelly are on these forums...

Sounds strange, I dunno if other folks have felt that. Could it be an issue with the part in question or install? They seem to have a lot of videos and research behind the product..not sure what is occurring.

Nothing wrong with Steeda parts at all. I love every part that I install and they worked great. But I am still,having wheel hop. Maybe is my worn out rear tire?

 

[KilluminatiDre]

Which diff lockouts bushings do you have?

 

[Clink]

Nothing out right now completely eliminates wheel hop, just helps with it.

I'm have a slew of Steeda parts and a little bit still exists but the car itself is so much more planted and manageable than it was stock. I'm sure BMR is the same way as both are great products.

Not sure why it would get worse though, maybe PM Kelly at BMR or he'll jump in I'm sure soon.

If your tires are worn out, yes, that will have a large impact.

Do you get hop on the street and track?

Do you have the differential bushings and rear IRS subframe braces?

I have bmr's cradle lock out, vertical links, and diff lock outs and still wheel hope a little bit and I mean a little, didn't all come together tho till I added the diff inserts

 

[robmustang201528]

How the NVH with the different inserts?
