yeah i get wheel hop and it fucks up my fuel pump relay from the vibration.. etc.. so i havent been doing any tire warm ups brake stands all that crap. and i cant swang like i wanna.
now what i think is the solution to my problem is some lower beefy springs with some new rear shocks..OR... drag radials and springs cuz my tire is kinda bald and one gots more thread what do you think?
[question 2]
ok so i installed a cat on my x pipe for smog.. i passed so i dont want it on there anymore does anyone know how much would it be to un install it and weld back the piping?

Get a nice set of aftermarket upper control arms. You prob don't have quad shocks that's why your getting wheelhop

aftermarket lower control arms, with polyurethane bushings, spherical bushings would be best.
for the x-pipe it would probably be cheaper to find a used off road x-pipe and save that one you have now for the next time you have to smog the car.
