Hi Jim,

Agreed, IMO - thats the problem. The objective of this thread is to inquire and resolve how to "eliminate" wheel hop. Are you possibly implying that your ERA Cobra(s) do not wheel hop under heavy acceleration / tire spin? If you by chance have a simplified solution, we're all ears... ?

I know four people with ERAs that this problem to resolve, me included with Mike. All with different tires, shocks, same problem. Hopefully Bob P's dampner design-to-be will do the trick.

Hey Mike,
I'm about ready to put a remote camera eye under there to record it and see what's really moving around. I bet its the cage. If nothing else works, I may resort to some sort of tri-bar configuration. Waiting to see what Bob comes up with first.
