Re: wheel hop

Sounds like you need a steering stabilizer , if you don't already have one ? If you do , perhaps it needs replaced ?

Re: wheel hop

Often, this is caused by bump steer or roll steer.
Typically, in lifted trucks, the steering geometry, specifically the drag link no longer is coordinated with the wheel movement over bumps.

Possibly a dropped pitman arm would compensate for this effect, and/or a front end alignment by a shop who know what to do with lifted trucks.
