Hello, i have a 2015 GT and it has very bad wheel hop. I have replaced almost the whole rear suspension and still has wheel hop, I’m at the point where i don’t know what else to do. Yes the control arm bushings were torn along with the diff bushings, I have replaced the control arm bushings with steeda Spherical bushings, and I also put in poly diff bushing inserts. On top of that I’ve also done cradle lockout kit, Steeda Rear Subframe Support Braces, and Steeda Rear Vertical Links. I don’t know what else could be the cause for the wheel hop. Maybe the tires? Rear struts? I have 275s on the rear and stock struts with lowering springs. Yes the wheel hop has gotten better with all the mods but it’s still pretty intense. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Hello Cummmy5.0..........Do you have a time slip from a dragstrip or even a Dragy 1/4 Mile Performance Report. The Problem may not be hardware related. You literally may be Hooking too well and triggering what is called a Jerk Response in your drive train which wheel hop is a common response. You are transferring weight too quickly. A Jerk is not a term you see on performance forums because everyone thinks that acceleration G's is all that matters when you launch. Without getting too technical it is the rate at which your g's increase so it is units of g's / second. If you have a time slip I can take a look.
