is there any way to get rid of wheel hop in the new six speed trucks?

 

yes LET OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!the right pedal!!!

 

thats what i do currently. i would like to not have to let out, and just have the wheel hop eliminated by something.

 

Traction bars would help. Not the kind for racing but off road, it will stiffen the rear of the truck but will keep axle wrap from happening. Wheel hop is where the traction is very high, either give it more gas and get them spinning good, or let off., only two options. (well sports car mabye) The new SRT-10 trucks actually have a shock on the top of the rear dif to help this. REad it in a magazine, actually really cool. Kinda like the Quad shocks used on the back of mustangs.

 

do they make any for the new 05s that are direct bolt on?

 

They make them. Not sure of specific part numbers but they have them. Tuff-Country, sky jacker, all them make them, there more pricy. JCWhitney had some off road ones I used for my bronco, 70 bucks or so, like them too. Check out the lift kit companys, they call them traction bars, but it prevents axle wrap

 

Wait till you get it in the snow! That rear will start hopping like a rabbit! It really stinks!!!!

 

Most of the companies that do lift kit's traction bars suck. I've seen pictures and they mount to the axle with ubolts... Yeah.

 

Put about 6 sand bags in the bed of the truck. The rear ends of these trucks are very light!

 

you can sometimes eliminate it with good quality shocks (the factory ones are pretty pathetic) or by changing tires (different size or rubber compound)

 

The Powerwagon (?) and Viper (?) trucks have a lot of performance mods, check em out.

 

I just ordered these:HD Traction Control Springs

We'll see how they work...

 

How did those HD control springs work out??

 

I'd like to know how they worked out as well. Looks pretty simple, and my long bed with the Carli suspension hop's a little bit around 5 mph on take off.

 

dont the second gens have a traction bar on the rear end do they make one for the 3rd gen
