Horrible wheel hop?
Hello, new here. I bought a '14 GT about a month ago. Love the car, it's my 5th mustang. Problem is, if I break loose the rear tires, even slightly cornering in 1st (it's a 6 speed) I get what feels like bad wheel hop. If I floor it in 2nd, at around 5 grand it gets really bad, what again, feels like wheel hop. Anybody have and experience with this issue? Car has 11k miles with stock Pirellis on it. Thanks, Torque42

Yes, it is a common issue.
The upper and lower control arm are a great way to increase your traction and reduce wheel hop - http://www.steeda.com/steeda-chrome-...arms-555-4422/ & http://www.steeda.com/steeda-mustang...-arm-555-4112/
You can email me at tim@steeda.com if you have any questions or need order support.
Happy to help!
Best Regards,

Massive improvement over the OEM UCA. Really firmed up the suspension and provides great feedback on what the rear is doing. Coupled with the UCA Bracket and LCA's, wheel hop is totally gone. There was no increase in NVH over the OEM UCA. Get the bushing set for the axle end and replace the OEM rubber unit while you're there as well. Having as much room as possible under the Mustang helps with installation. A great product that is topped off by an even greater technical staff at STEEDA. Frank, Patrick and Rod are all great to deal with and knowledgeable about the products.
