Default Traction

Alright, so I have a 97 Camaro SS and just had some mild work done to the motor. And when I get on it from slow speeds I have a lot of wheel hop. I dont do it much, but I also dont feel like replacing the rear end down the road. The car is just a cruiser, not for racing or anything. Any suggestions on traction bars?

is the car lowered? you may want to pick up some extentions for the rearend where the control arms hook in. Camaro F-Body Rear Lower Control Arm Relocation Brackets | Stock Rear new control arms may help. Rear Lower Control Arms | 1993-1997 F-Body Camaro & Firebird are you sure its not a trans mount?

The torque arm is supposed to prevent wheel hop, which is caused by the pinion lifting and snapping back down.
In addition to the trans mount, check the arm mounting points, front and rear.
