I\'m still dealing with wheel hop!!

I have an '03 with 11k miles. Still dealing with wheel hop that doesn't let me have any fun. Is there anything the dealer can do to correct this? I don't feel that i should buy 4 new tires when it's a factory issue. I also don't feel like i should spend $4k on Motons for a factory issue as well.

Can a dealer do anything? It's preventing me from getting a supercharger!!

I've only gotten it a few times but don't know exactly what causes it myself.

I only get it when it cold outside but even then, it's mild and only happens when going hard from 1st to 2nd

In my '03 all stock, it happens all the time. It is anoying when your trying to do a side by side smokey burnout with a '69 camaro. Rolling the throttle gives faster times but nearly as fun.

Re: I\'m still dealing with wheel hop!!

check your motor mounts and transmission mounts. A easy and simple fix is to install the competition coupe mounts which are much harder than the stock ones. You can buy them from dodge and while you are at it get the steering mounts too.
