Axle Tramp is that the same as wheel hop :?:

Mopar built better everything drive train and suspension wise hard to hop hop a rear axle with a factory pinion snubber 8-) with torsion bar front end,,,,,, would have been a better movie if Steve McQueen had Kowalski part :think:

Wheel hop is not nearly as severe as axle tramp, and, a simple pinion stop won't stop it on that car. Traction bars and a panhard bar/Wats linkage would help.
