Wheel hop

[crazygn]

I put my new headers on , i took it around the block and steped on it and all i get is very side ways and a lot of wheel hop. How can i stop this i have 275 60 15 on the back on 10"rims and junky air shocks .I forgot that iam running the stock down pipe open. Atr down pipe and up pipe should be here in a day or two.

First, check to make sure nothing is bent or broken (especially the air shocks). Then do the following:
Lose the air shocks, change to air bags, replace the bushings with urethane, box the control arms, and get some Lakewood No Hop Bars. Yes, they DO work.
