ok here's my question,does anyone know why my front wheels hop when i spin my wheels a bit from a stop!
my old 92 mx-3 would just spin the wheels with very minimal hop to almost no hop when driving in a spirited fashion.
Im hypothesizing it's my motor mounts but im unsure about my conclusion.
Is this the cause of my hopping,or is there another cause?
wheel hop?

Re: wheel hop?
Yeah check your mounts, The rear mount under the fule filter is a common one to go.

Wheel hop is pretty normal. SRD/cork sport has a new-ish bushing kit to fix it. Check em out.

Re: wheel hop?
Do a search. my car has filled motor mounts, and will spin forever if I let it, and doesn't hop at all.
