Does pinion angle have anything to do with wheel hop? I've set my pinion angle at 3 degrees positve in order to accomodate my ride height and one piece driveshaft. The only problem is I'm getting severe wheel hop all the way through second gear and into third until it hooks. I've got the two upper adjustable control arms mounted and it doesn't seem to help. My rear springs are out of a 67 Chevelle. I don't know what the spring rate is, but they are pretty stiff, could that be my problem?
