I have the K2rd toe Links and Trailing Arms. They helped out on wheel hop, but did not totally get rid of it. Still a noticeable improvement over stock.

Thanks. I think thats next on my to-do list. I constantly have that wicked clunk and squeak. Not to mention that I hop whenever the wheels lose traction in a straight line.

Thanks for the tip vosko. I haven't looked at the PPF yet, will I be able to inspect it clearly with the car on a lift?
