Be clearer. What are you doing when it hops? Are you turning at all? Are you on pavement?

When you jack it up and spin the wheel, are you in 4WD? How bad is the bind? Can you turn past it by hand?

Will only one side bind or will both? Are you on dry pavement when it's hopping? If so, that's a no-no, :slap:

Is english your first language? :poke: If not, please advise us so we know whether or not to haze you.

I'm not going to attempt to help until you can form a coherent post.

Use all those tools they taught you in grade school... grammar, spelling, punctuation!
