Wheel hop after UCA/LCA install


I have recently installed CHE double adjustable uppers with sheprical bushings on the torque box side and new poly carrier bushings on the diff side. The lowers are CHE also but they are solids wilh poly/delrin bushings/bearings. I have also removed the quad shocks.

I have not adjusted my pinion angle yet and just adjusted them to the lenght of the stock control arms. Would a bad pinion angle cause wheel hop? Because when I'm in the burnout box and try to do a burnout it's hopping on me.

your pinion angle could be causing it. Quad shocks are only supposed to be on the car if you have stock control arms. I did just a little wheel hop while doing burnouts but after my pinion angle changed hasn't done it anymore

it won't hurt anything i don't think except add weight, plus they don't help you any.
