Horrible Bouncing.. ?
well, the other day i went for a 2nd gear scratch (as always). and my rear end just started to bounce all over the place...it also bounces when i do a dump. im sure its a bad thing, but could you guys tell me what the hell is making my rear end bounce like a super ball ?

How good are your tires? I have noticed that the more bald my tires get (there is maybe a hair width of tread left on them now) the more wheel hop I get when roasting them.

it might be the LSD, if you were slightly turning the diff might have locked and made the inside wheel hop. I've gotten that problem before and my car is in great shape,
