I normally do not have any wheel hop unless the pavement is wet or if I go into the water box.

I have Steeda's "stop the hop" kit (which is their non-adjustable LCA's and a UCA) and it seems to be working sweet so far.

Many recommend replacing the LCA's to eliminate wheel hop. I replaced mine with some Spohn adjustables and it seems to have gotten rid of my wheel hop.

It's been stated that replacing the UCA is the best way to get rid of wheel hop. While you are there, you might as well do the lowers also.

BMR and Steeda have the "stop the hop" kits which should do away with atleast most of it, and cut down on your 0-60 by a few tenths, and your 1/4 time as well.
