is it me or did that make any sense?

so you have the quad shocks on the car still? and you want to know how you can stop the wheel hop while still keeping them on?

take them off and throw them away....

I DID EXPERIENCE WHEEL HOP WITH NO QUADS BUT I HAD A BENT SHOCK BAR.( THE SHINNY BAR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SHOCK) NEW SHOCKS FIXED THAT THO.

i had the same problem until i switched to a maximum motorsports panhard rod w/ torque arm setup, not sure which one fixed it but the car handles like a champ. could your upper control arm bushings be worn?
