I am also considering going to 3.73's too which probably won't help. Would increasing the pinion angle on the LCA's help. What abouit tires. Still got stock one's on. And how about tire presssure? Lot's of Q's I know, but I hate the hopping.

You can't adjust the pinion angle with the LCA's. You do that with the adjustable torque arm. The LCA's angle to the ground can be altered with LCA relocation brackets, it that's what you mean. You indicate you have a "torque control arm".... which one, is it adjustable.

As far as tires, what are you running now?

Given the list of your mods, the thing that seems to be missing are the LCA relo brackets.

Got the relo brackets and stock tires with stock rims. Sorry I was told the pinion angle on the LCA's were adjustable. Don't know about the torque arm will have to gert bakk on that one. If so what adjust would do the trick?

One more time... you don't adjust the pinion angle with the LCA's. And there is no "pinion angle on the LCA's". The only thing an adjustable LCA will do is move the rear axle/wheel/tire forward and backward in the wheel opening.

You need an adjustable torque arm to adjust the pinion angle - pinion shaft centerline angle relative to the driveshaft. The Spohn TA is about as good as it gets:

Thanks, like I said I was just going by what I was told. I will get right on moving the angle asap.
