Control arms are something you should be looking into.

Yeah, lying about what one drives generally isn't cool. Look at his garage. He shouldn't be asking this question if he actually has/had the heavily modded Bullitt that his garage describes (considering a possible solution is something he supposedly had on that Bullitt).

well it should sound like you know a thing or 2 about cars ... wheel hop isnt that hard to understand ... friction ...

now like you said, its missing all that stuff that could help keep the tires planted ...
