Post Bird hop

Does any one have a problem with a 97 F150 5.4 Bird hopping when you get on it from a standing start. It has the limited slip. All it wants to do is bird hop.

Cool

I think you mean wheel hop and yes mine does. Sometimes so much that it shakes the whole truck. Watch out in the rain. One fix is to install some kind of traction bar or kicker shock if your like me and love leaving 2 ===== down the road. Check out the last picture on this page of my site and look at the right mark you can see a little wheel hop. http://members.xoom.com/_XMCM/firezap/54engine.htm
