STILL wheelhopping
#5
have ur pinion angle adjusted if u havent
at the track manuals should run a -3 to -4 degree pinion angle
plus i think on the relocation brackets the second hole is best for stock height cars
correct me if im wrong

The lowest hole is the best position to eliminate wheel hop and gain straight line traction. I read that you set the pinion angle to -3 degrees, but as I stated above, a lot of people get confused about setting pinion angle and do it wrong. Does your driveshaft and "pinion gear" make a "V" shape pointing to the ground (this angle makes sure that it's negative pinion angle)?

^^ When you are ON it the rear has a tendancy to twist upwards. (pinion walking UP the ring gear) So if you sett the angle to negitive it should be pointing slightly down at a 'V', but the angle will not really be noticeable. So when the rear is under TQ or a heavy load the driveshaft angle straightens out. -Correct me if I'm wrong. I thought the angle was supposed to be -2*?
The lowest hole is good for straight line traction. However the LCA's should be parallel with the ground. Maybe a little more sloped down twords the rear.

I know i set the pinion angle right. ive tried -1,-2,& -3.i couldnt tell any difference in any of the change.has any one else had this problem?if so how did u fix it. the relocation brackets helped some but its still pretty bad.

If you are not running rod end lower control arms you might try some, or put poly bushings in the stock arms. Try lowering your tire pressure. With the improved antisquat of the shorter torque arm you may be better off with the lower arms in the second hole. Just for reference too low anitsquat causes wheel spin while too high will cause wheel hop.
