Just wanted to thank all of you 2011 owners as well as those of us that have the "old" cars for all your comments and information on our wheel hop issues. The fact is that we have the problem and have to deal with it as best we can. Tires are not the problem. The goodyears are just trying to hook up and the suspension can't handle the traction they are providing. The other tires that don't allow wheel hop are just a harder rubber compound and do not have enough traction to cause the hop. We can argue and discuss this problem forever but there is no need to. Dodge tried to satisfy two different kinds of owners. Those of us that are into the sports car type pf driving and those of us that are into straight line performance. They just missed on the latter. They should have offered an "old school" package that some of us old farts (I am 57) want which is the leaf spring / Sure Grip equipped Dana 60 differential with several different gear ratios. Then we all would be happy. Don't get me wrong, I love my '09 stick, just wish it was Dana equipped. Hope I didn't offend anyone and I am sorry if I did. I will just have to be happy with using a hop not kit and get over it. Thanks again for everyones input. MOPAR TO YA!!!!!!
