Re: Wheel hop under braking

I'm thinking that a pair of simple traction bars (that someone else suggested) that connect and pivot at the same point the front spring bolts are so you don't cause a spring bind may be the easy cure.

Or maybe a torque arm that bolts to a few of the bolts on the third member and runs up and pivots at the same point the front U joint is ala Camaro of a few years ago. Basically going back to a torque tube without a tube.

My ongoing truck projects:
48 Chev 3100 that will run a 292 Six.
71 GMC 2500 that is getting a Cad 500 transplant.
77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
