You can add BMR's LCA's, UCA, Panhard Bar, and the instant center for the LCA's. That should eliminate all your wheel hop for around $750.

Try turning traction control off, it usually helps.

The ONLY time I've ever had wheel hop has been on a drag strip, and I'm not totally convinced since the track was kinda bumpy. But aftermarket LCAs would def help your situation. Try to get a handle on it soon. Wheel hop=broke car.

RE: Enough is Enough
tire spin is not wheel hop.

If you wanna see wheel hop, watch Steve McQueen jam that Mustang into reverse during the car chase... that's some wheel hop.
