Trailing arms and some drag radials for starters.

Kind of surprised you experience wheel hop with an automatic, but yes you can break an axle due to this.

Thanks i will do searching for trailing arms and i will have a new setup for my wheels soon ( will go with 17 wheels and drag radials)

maybe i have this issue because i run my car so many times at the Drag and my Street tires are very bad :(


Regards

Trailing arms and outer bushings.

I always had terrible wheel hop in 1st and 2nd. New BMR trailiing arms and bushings, night and day difference. I am still on street tires, now when I floor it in 1st or 2nd, I either launch or spin, no hop.
