capri_83 -> tire hop????? (5/9/2008 9:06:12 AM)

so this is driving me crazy I've installed BFG drag radials(275/40r17) and now the car hops like crazy......street/water box. I've installed lakewood shocks......new bushings......uppers and lower control arms......the only thing different is the tires......last year no issue......I would hate to have to drive the car with slick on......

Weld on full length subframe connectors maybe will help?

car has sub-frame connectors.....know that I think about it I put in new springs(cargo coils) and I think they're my problem too stiff so in go the old ones.

Maybe get a new torque arm?

Mustangs do not have torque arms. I am thinking pinion angle might be really far off after the control arm swap??

put old springs in and will try that......arms are not adjustable...thanks guy.....now it track night
