Re: 4-wheel drive
[ QUOTE ]
The "wheel hop" you are feeling is caused by the u-joints. The u-joints have a limited angle of operation.

Wrong again.
The wheel hop is because there is no differential between the front and rear wheels. The front wheels travel a longer distance than the rear wheels when turning. If all the tires have traction, something has to give. One or more tires will slip or something will break, like a u-joint. That's why you should not use four wheel drive on good traction surfaces.
