Wheel hop crazy - front left

<< < (14/22) > >>

The walk really does increase traction by quite a margin... well worth it!

Robin.. i thought as a die hard modder you'd have the WALK kit on!  :wink:

MAT ED30:
He does have walk fitted

This is how the Superpro one looks, see how it is offset to change the wishbone's angle?

Top Cat:
I think your going about this all wrong, Your just adding loads of expensive part's trying to cure a fault. I personally would first off swap my front tyres for the back ones, just to see if this cures it. This will discount the tyres from being the problem. Then i would take it to a different reputable garage and get them to go over all your bolts and suspension connection's to see if something is a-miss. VWR are great but they quite often make mistakes.
Then if all check's out ok you need to start looking at wheel alignment and such like. There is obviously a fault  on something as you should not be getting excessive wheel hop, some perhaps occasionally but not all the time.
I am no mechanic, but it's common sense to trace and fix a fault before just buying bits hoping to cure it.  :santa:

Check. If all ok, do what you should have done first of all and do the bushes & geo.

Bad form on being relieved of a £monkey+ for something you didn't need.
