[QUOTE="Robert M, post: 13790250, member: 9628"] To be honest, when I got my car back from Las Vegas it would spin yes, and for long distances if I chose to press it. <<All of this was with stock/oem 2008 LCA's and UCA. I had no problem with the rear suspension "hopping" or "bouncing" on the oem rubber ends. I liked the looks of the poly LCA's that Shelby Perf. Parts offered, and thought, "what will it hurt to install nice looking poly LCA's?" and it has improved the rear suspension to a tighter more firm feel. The UCA I did not change until I had my 8.8 axle out for a restoration. I only changed my UCA at that time because it was the time to do it when it was best accessible. That UCA change also helped to stiffen the rear axle mounting and I was happy. Then I started to research what changes were made in 2011 to the UCA and what was available in the aftermarket world...........so I started to do some side-by-side comparisons. I would guess that the "hopping/bouncing" of the rear suspension begins when an owner starts to upgrade rear tire rubber? and the car starts to grip a little more translating energy to the rubber points on the upper and lower control arms? I have never had "wheel hop" to this date with my car, but I have done some suspension upgrades first, and then rubber. Is most of this overkill for a street driven car the "sprints" from a traffic light from time to time? Yes, I agree. R [/QUOTE]
