Any easy fix for chronic wheel hop / axle tramp?
I'm noticing some awful wheel hop /axle tramp on mine. Car has done 6k miles and i'd say it's always been the same, so nothing appears to be broken as such.
I doubt poly bushing everything will fix it. I don't want to go to rose joints either as they're not designed to last a long time. Anyone resolved this? Actuals rather than armchair engineering please.. |

sounds bit unusual, I havent noticed much hopping either on my car or hers, but I prolly dont wind hers out like mine
what tire are you on? what suspension? I use the WL x-member bushes and hardly any hop, some is often there on many cars i've driven with multilink link rear ends when pushes to the limit, but I am on stiffer coilovers, and I lay it down like there is no tomorrow and as if I wasnt paying for my next clutch, even tho I am. Have you tried the bushing upgrade and some sticky tire thats doesnt break and regain grip? may help with hoppyness. keeping this topic on radar. |

Tyres and suspension are OEM.

I will have to suggest you try a better than OEM tyre if youre breaking traction that is causing your hop hop. You must be like me, right foot heavy. Neither of our BRZs have factory rubber!
