Wheel hop issues
#1
I think I may buy a 67 in my area. The owner has lifted it about 5 inches with a James Duff Lift, duel shocks all the way around, and full length leaf springs. He is having problems with wheel hop in first gear. Its not a problem in low gear however. He has also installed a new clutch and heavy duty anti wrap trap on the axle. He also had custom drive shafts made to fit.
I have heard that it is an easy fix, and once it is lifted that high there is some issues with the linkages that may cause the wheel hop.

Any help would be appriciated. I don't want to purchase and sink a ton more into it off the start.
