Have fixed quite a few things on this old girl, but she's still hopping. First suspect of wheel hop when we got it was the flywheel, however, apparently, it was replaced with the clutch. Suspected a bad rear wheel bearing, I was right, it was starting to grind. Replaced both rear bearings. Replaced all 3 engine mounts. 2 were bad. Seemed as though hop was gone. Nope. Might have to drive longer before it happens, so it seems all these things were contributing factors. I am suspecting a bad front bearing. No play, and hard to hear even with scope because of the noisy-*** performance muffler. Would a bad front bearing, as it heated up, contribute to the hopping?

 

I doubt it. Have you balanced your wheels and checked your shocks?

 

Balancing, alignment all done with tires less than 2000 km ago. Shocks seem fine. The things that I've replaced have needed to be replaced, so I'm o.k. with that. Just dread the idea of pulling out the clutch only to find that isn't was causing it.
