HD Eaton posi that Moser offers and it only seems to do it on right hand turns?
how much can the rear sway bar affect how the rear moves when turning?

I got the LCA's through a group purchase for very cheap, and they have made a big difference. Fred

I've never had a wheel hop problem...Even though I've got a completely stock suspension with the exception of the front sway bar removal. The car pulls 1.67 60 ft. times and is yanking the drivers side front wheel a few inches off the ground.
Maybe it has something to do with the M/T ET Streets? But, I never had it with the Drag Radials, either.

That would only prove its locking both wheels.
POSI unit also need to do some limited slip. Like when you turn; it should let it slip; without you feeling it. If its not letting it slip. Then it mean its LOCKEDUP like spool or lockers! Which another sign of BAD posi

Depends on the posi unit... a heavy duty unit, like the one Strange sells with 800# preload is prone to "chatter" on turns. Isn't "bad"... its just a little too sensitive.

SJS:

A Moser 12-bolt is not necessarily a "posi".... you could also buy one with a locker or a spool. They would definitely be chirping the tires in turns, as Mir has pointed out.

simple:

Did you use the limited slip additive?
