Rear end bouncing hard when tires lose traction..
« on: June 07, 2015, 04:51:48 pm »
So I've wondered what causes this in my case. I believe it's called axle hop but not sure. If I stomp it sometimes the backend starts bouncing hard, my truck is lowered the owner before me torched leaf spring mounts and Re welded under axle. Truck drives straight and handles ok.

Probably exactly what you're thinking it is. You'd benefit from com traction bars.

A traction bar will help
