Yeah, the 98 F'bird. The wheel hop started after the 3.73 and Truetrac were installed. Had wheel hop before installing the LS1 drive shaft, and after. Without an adjustable T/A, I would not know how to change the pinion angle.

It has the BF Goodrich Traction TA radials, 235 x16. Nothing super sticky.

I'm wondering if I've trashed the LCA bushings from the extra load now that the posi is in there?

Sent an email to Moog asking them about their rubber bushings. Want to know if they are equal or better than the GM 1LE spec bushings.
