Lowered car wheel hop

[quique]

I lowerd my car about 7 months ago with some 2'' lowering springs. Its a 2000 V6.. I knew the ride would be a bit stiff so i got some Moroe GT shocks all around since i do have a 8.8 rear end. Only thing i didnt count on was the wheel hop ..so i was told that air shocks would fix it right up so i went in that direction..I hookt it up and for a while it workt but i they dnt seem to keep the air in for a while . I need a permanent solution..Any one know what else i can use to stop the wheel hop? diff type of shocks?? what set ups do yall have??

Might be handy to mention about your rims/tires since they can affect suspension compliance as well.

Have you done anything to correct the pinion drive shaft angle?

Have you considered stiffer rear lower control arms? Adjustable uppers/lowers would also allow for "tuning" to get the best results.

The rims are 245/ 17's bullit rims.So far i have the air shocks and they work when i have them at about 40 PSI but like i said they dnt tend to hold the air for long. Alsodont like having to deal with puting air in them all the time..im going back to gas struts..tuned with a SCT tunner. i have a Steda sway bar but that didnt help just on the cornering. the GT cuad shocks. I was thinking on buyng the lower control arms nxt

Funny thing is that when i had my stock springs with the 8.8 rear end it would burned out like a champ. Not till i lowered it that i had the problem

Did you install the quad shocks with the 8.8 rear end?

If not...install them. That is what they are there for.
