Re: bad wheel hopping
I helped a freind a while back... we took out the over load spring (the 3/4 in thick short spring on the bottom) and let the tires down.... get it to grab and stay hooked... the back lowered about an inch when we took out the spring....and road better to... it helped a ton... then he put an oooold set of slapper bars on it and then it was great just my $.02

Re: bad wheel hopping
something else you can do is extend your perches to contact more spring this will help a bit we do it on off road stuff a lot, or cut down an extra overload sping thats about 3 inches longer than the perch on each side and put that inbetween your perch and springs we did this on my yota and it almost completely stopped the wrap and hop even with 5.29 gears and dual tranfer cases
