Default Rear Wheel Hop

What do you use to get rid of it on a stock 90?

hpm mega bite jr lower control arms will do a pretty good job of stopping it

but if you get a cheater slick, that'll lose it for sure. if the tire isn't spinning, it doesn't hop at all.

I just got rid of my quads and mine just started to hop like hell, put my bfg dr's on it and it wanted to hop. Could the quads help with the hop?

That's why. You should only take the quads off if you've upgraded the lower control arms.
