ANOTHER WHEEL HOP THREAD WTF! :angry:

Just installed bmr vertical links tca048r to start attacking the wheel hop issue and helped stop the hop when rolling but no luck from a dig. Im trying to eliminate wheel hop without dropping the subframe (which I bet ill have to in the end) since I do all the installation myself and my skill and experience is as far as everything done in my signature so i'm a bit nervous to tackle something like this.

I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for the next suspension part to grab that might help. When I had my v6 the steeda subframe braces fixed all wheel hop but not to sure if this will work alone on a gt.

I'm sure everyone's gonna yell and tell me ill have to do the subframe bushings but for the off chance someone has any suggestions and can point me in a different direction it would be much appreciated, or if anyone in Chicago wants to help me drop the subframe :cwl:

Thanks!

I'd say the Steeda braces would still work the same as they did on the V6 for you. Dropping the subframe isn't that bad either, just 4 big bolts.

Lowering the subframe is not a big deal at all. I have the vertical links and BMR 005 kit. However, drag radials is what it took to stop my wheel hop at the strip.
