...Get solid aluminum front "eye" bushings and polygraphite rear shackle bushings...Interesting though; I have NEVER had a problem with wheel-hop in my '73...
: ...they will only exacerbate the problem by eliminating the natural 'give' in the suspension making it TOO stiff. I would then have to ask if you have "slapper" traction bars, if so try some "Traction Master" type like the early Mustangs (incl Shelbys)and Falcons used. These mounted to the 'spring pad' and then to the subrame ahead fo the axle...haven't seen ANY wheel hop with those style in all my years.
