products engineered to work together for everyday road and track day handling.
Hop Not Rear suspension full Kit Includes Stage 1, Stage 2, and the Adjustable Sway Bar Link. These items working together will yield the best results in
controlling your six speeds wheel hop. In fact, we're so confident that we can
Cure Your Six Speed Challenger's Wheel Hop that we back our products with our
limited 30 day money back guarantee. Please see the "Special Offer
announcement" at the top of this page for the details. Stage 1 is a must
have for anyone seeking that performance car driving experience. Your Dodge
Challenger, Charger, Magnum, or Chrysler 300 will drive and handle like it's on
rails. Although, not all automatic driven cars experience extreme wheel hop,
they do still share the same cradle movement issues. This unwanted movement at
the cradle also minimizes the effectiveness of other suspension upgrades such
as aftermarket springs, coil overs, stiffer sway bars, etc. The Hop Not Stage 1
kit should be your first suspension upgrade for your best results. Stage 1 consist of four CNC machined spacers, two special
flat washers, and a tool/sleeve that’s provided for easy removal of the OEM
plates located at the front cradle mounts. The proprietary spacers are designed
to attach to the bottom of each rubber cradle bushing/mount and eliminate the
movement that the rubber mounts allow at the cradle or sometimes referred to as
the rear sub-frame. Each spacer is machined to extremely tight tolerance levels
to ensure that the small tapered lip of the spacer seats against the inner edge
of the sleeve found in each OEM rubber mount while bottoming out against the
inner spacer at the same point. Dodge Challenger, Charger, Magnum, and Chrysler 300 owners
with automatic transmissions can enjoy the same handling improvements as manual
transmission owners by eliminating unwanted movement felt at the rear cradle.
The boat rocking sensation felt as the car is rocked back and forth at highway
speeds is eliminated with this kit. This upgrade is a great addition to your
Challenger’s suspension, even if you are currently using aftermarket sway bars,
coil overs, lowered springs, etc. Consider adding the adjustable sway bar link when installing
Stage 1 on a six speed car. Warning: the machined spacer kit must be installed as a set.
The front spacers are a different design than the rear. Never drive the car
without all four spacers installed. Installing less than the full set will
allow part of the rear cradle to move at the ones that are still rubber only
and cause failures at the ones that are rigid mounted. Please contact us if you
have any questions. Stage 1 must be installed prior to adding Stage 2 in any
application. Stage 2 is designed
to enhance Stage 1 once the rear cradle movement is addressed. Expect tight,
performance car handling and wheel hop control like you've never experienced
before. You're missing out on one of the most dynamic performance improvements
you can add to your vehicle if you think this is strictly a six speed issue.
Although, automatic driven Challengers, Chargers, Magnums, and Chrysler 300
don't suffer from the extreme wheel hop that most six speeds vehicles are
experiencing, they do all share the same unwanted movement at the rear cradle
bushings/mounts. The boat rocking sensation mentioned in the Stage 1 summary
and the suspension flex are keeping you
from enjoying the full potential of your vehicle's IRS (Independent Rear
Suspension) even if you've already added stiffer springs, sway bars, coil overs,
etc. We accomplish this level of performance with our proprietary CNC produced
brackets that allow us to attach a horizontal stabilizer from each wheel hub to
the rear mounting area of the cradle itself. The rear cradle frame is by far
the strongest item under these cars. All late model Dodge Challengers,
Chargers, Magnums, and Chrysler 300 have a five link IRS (Independent Rear
Suspension) that offers a comfortable ride, but makes performance handling and
wheel hop or sometimes referred to as power hop difficult to control. These IRS
systems have ten rubber bushings per side, twenty four in all if you include
the four that are used in the cradle mounts. Stage 1 eliminates the movement at
the four cradle bushings/mounts, but then it's up our Stage 2 kit to control
the flex of the IRS components. Although, these cars don't suffer from the same
type of axle wind up that the older versions did, they do endure a tightening
or flexing of all the IRS arms, links, and rubber bushings that must be
controlled. Stage 2 works with the normal up and down motions of the suspension
components with minimal effects on ride quality. Stage 2 allows the IRS arms,
links, and rubber bushings to tighten, but then it briefly holds it in
avoidance of becoming a repetitive hop as traction is gained and lost. Each lower aluminum
bracket goes through a five cut CNC process then receives a special bend that
allows us to take advantage of two mounting points at the wheel hubs for
maximum strength. You could work your cars suspension from full extension to
fully compress and won't have any clearance issues...we already have. The upper
stabilizer mounting brackets start with the same rear machined spacers used in
our Stage 1 kit, then we weld on a special CNC produced angle bracket and
locating pin that utilizes existing holes in each side of the cradle's frame. Plant the rear tires like never before. In fact, you'll have
the ability to launch harder than ever, even if you launch with wheel spin
because our Stage 2 Stabilizer kit will make the tires bite within a few feet.
Understandably, the type and size of the tires you're using will have an effect,
as well as road conditions and the level of power you're putting to the wheels,
but you'll experience major traction and handling improvements in any
application as compared to without having the Hop Not products. Stage 2 is now available for lowered vehicles. Just be sure
to select the correct item when you check out. Please note; the standard Stage 2 Stabilizer Kit and the
Stage 2 Stabilizer Kit For Lowered vehicles will not interchange. Only install
the Stage 2 Stabilizer Kit for Lowered Vehicles on Vehicles that have been
lowered and the standard Stage 2 Stabilizer Kit on vehicles that have a stock,
unchanged ride height/stance. If you've lowered your vehicle any and haven't
replaced the OEM shocks with shorter versions you may have to push the
suspension up enough to install our Stage 2 Stabilizers at the time of install
because although you've lowered your vehicle, the stock shocks will let the
suspension hang to the full extension while the tires are off the ground. Also,
be aware that the stock shocks are the limiting/stops and they only have a
certain amount of travel before they will bottom out. For example, a stock SRT
Challenger shock sits at about 2 and 1/4 inches as measured on the shock body
itself on a car that has not been lowered and maxes out at about 5 inches of
travel, so if you've lowered the car two inches you'll have very little travel
left before the shock is bottomed out. This may cause a very harsh ride and
eventually cause the shock to blow out or cause other issues. With this in
mind, it's best to replace the OEM shocks when you lower your vehicle
accordingly. Please see our FAQ section for additional tips and
information about this product. This adjustable sway bar link is a key part in controlling
your cars wheel hop. It works with Stage 1 to ensure that all is “not equal” to
the rear wheels. The link is preset at 1/4 ” longer then stock length but, should
always be compared to the stock link at each install. Do not exceed 1/4 ” shorter
or longer in any application. This new Hop Not adjustable sway bar link is based on an OEM
link; only threaded, and then a 3/4" hex connector is added to make this
unit adjustable. The hex connector uses 12mm right hand threads on one end and
12mm left hand threads on the other for easy on car adjustments. A small groove
marks the end with the left hand threads. The Adjustable Stabilizer Link should be installed at the
right front location. This creates a slight weight difference at the rear
wheels/tires to work along with Stage 1 and or Stage 2 in controlling wheel
hop. The adjustable link is pretty much intended for six speed cars unless you
have the need to even out or preload your cars suspension system. Total package for six
speed Challengers Exhaust Solo Performance 3” exhaust with High
Flow Cats Raw American muscle on the outside and
a refined, non-invasive performance exhaust note on the inside. The dramatic
sound difference from outside to inside is accomplished by months of research
and development plus specific product design for the 2008-PRESENT Challenger
SRT-8. All of us at Solo Performance are very
proud to bring to the Challenger community our free-flow MACH X-3 exhaust kits.
These kits are a 3? mandrel bent stainless steel converter back exhaust. We
have had a lot of fun designing for this very “challenging” car and would like
to thank Ontario Chrysler, London Chrysler, Taylor Chrysler, Bruno and Kevin
for the use of their cars and their invaluable feedback. The Solo Mach X-3 exhaust kit works
equally well on the automatic or standard SRT-8. Exhaust Kit Specs Front Muffler Assembly Right and Left tail pipe assembly using

has been tuned by Johan M. @ diablotoona@gmail.com I have all the
emails and data that support the tune and it is loaded in the Diablo) It was built with handling in mind and has lots of torque
and spins to the red line great! It is road race ready!! This Challenger is fast and has very low miles. It has not been raced has not been on a Dyno, and has not been beat on. It looks like the day it came off the show room floor. It has every option except for Navigation and Sunroof. It was built for fun, but based on the mileage it has not been driven and it’s time to let it go. Anyone is welcome to come see it and inspect it. Basically it is a brand new car with all the goodies already done. Buy it and drive it or buy it and race it. I am not selling it because I need the money I want to build another project which for me is what the passion is. With that said I will not be giving it away, sorry, but some of the emails I get on things, is nuts. I have some of the original suspension parts and the Cats, but I used the heads and throttle body on a truck I was tinkering with. I have a clear title, so it is ready to go - no dealing with a bank and waiting. |

BMW tops Consumer Reports 2023 Brand Report Card
Thu, Feb 16 2023Feels like we wrote about Consumer Reports' 2022 Brand Report Car and 10 Top Picks a few weeks ago, but it was last April. So the mag is back with a ranked roster of 32 brands and 10 vehicles in four categories for your debating pleasure. Starting with the brands, last year's top three were Subaru, Mazda and BMW. This year, the Munich crew climbed two spots to win the prize thanks to "Superb road test scores and solid results in CR’s reliability and owner satisfaction surveys." Subaru narrowly fell to second, maintaining its four-year run in the top three. Mini, eighth last year, jumped five spots to get the last step on the podium. The rest of the top 10 were Lexus (up one spot from last year), Honda (down one spot from last year), Toyota (up three), Genesis (up 12), Mazda (down six), Audi (down three) and Kia (up eight). The magazine and testing outfit says its Brand Report Card "[reveals] which automakers are producing the most well-performing, safe, and reliable vehicles based on CRÂ’s independent testing and member surveys," and that "Brands that rise to the top tend to have the most consistent performance across their model lineups." Last year's top 10 had six automakers from Japan, three from Germany (giving Mini credit for England), none from the U.S. or South Korea, and five luxury brands. This year's list counts five makes from Japan, two from Germany because Porsche fell out of the top ten, two from South Korea, still none from the U.S., and four luxury brands. Buick again ranked as the best domestic, dropping to 12th after being 11th last year. The big mover was Lincoln, its 10-place jump up to 16th attributed to better reliability from the Corsair and Nautilus. Tesla's improved overall reliability saw it climb six spots to 17th. Dodge climbed one spot to 15th. Jeep got out of the penalty box in last to come second-to-last. Land Rover fell three places into the penalty spot. CR's top 10 vehicle models The 10 Top Picks list is practically a new list. Only two holdovers made it to 2023, those being the Subaru Forester and Kia Telluride.
2014 Dodge Durango Ron Burgundy ads already have 2.7M views [w/videos]
Mon, 14 Oct 2013The guy who once made the Dodge Stratus a punchline of sorts is now a spokesman for the 2014 Dodge Durango, and the move appears to be paying off handsomely for Dodge. Will Ferrell, acting as 1970s-era TV news personality Ron Burgundy, has teamed up with the automaker for co-branded advertisements between the refreshed 2014 Durango and Ferrell's new movie, Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues. Like Ferrell's fictional character, the ads are outrageous, flamboyant and a bit random. They're also successful: Automotive News says that more than 2.7 million people have already watched the videos since they debuted on October 5.
Those views are similar to the numbers that AN's top viral video of the year (e.g. Volkswagen's "Get Happy" Super Bowl ad) received, but there will eventually be as many as 70 videos comprising the Burgundy-Durango spots. According to the report, the videos were created primarily as a viral campaign online, although some are airing on television, too. For Dodge's part, the cost of the videos was significantly lower than a usual television campaign thanks to the fact that Ferrell wasn't paid for the spots since they were made in cooperation with promotional efforts for his new movie.
We've already posted a few of the videos in our previous post, but scroll down for several more - and head over to Adweek for a little added background on how these spots came to be.
FCA seeks partner to keep building Dodge Dart, Chrysler 200
Wed, Mar 9 2016Mere weeks after FCA announced it was shutting down production of the Dodge Dart and Chrysler 200, new hope emerges to give the sedans a stay of execution. Speaking at the Geneva Motor Show last week, Sergio Marchionne said that the company was looking for a partner "who is better at it than we are and who has got capacity available" in order to continue building the models on its behalf. "There are discussions going on now," said Marchionne, according to Motor Trend. "I think we will find a solution. We continue to talk. It's both a technical solution and an economic one. We need to find a solution that works economically." Contracting vehicles to be manufactured offsite is more common practice among European automakers than it is with American ones. Chrysler's former patron Mercedes, for example, has the G-Class built for it by Magna Steyr in Austria, the A-Class by Valmet in Finland, and the R-Class by AM General in Indiana (even though it's no longer sold in the US). This arrangement would, on the surface at least, appear more similar to the deal that Toyota struck with Mazda to build the Scion iA, drawing on the contractor's expertise and capacity to build the small sedan on the client company's behalf. Only rather than basing a new model on one of the partner's existing ones, this deal would ostensibly continue building FCA models on FCA platforms using FCA components. We'll have to wait to find out with whom FCA strikes up the manufacturing deal, but we wouldn't be surprised to see Marchionne turn to a partner he already knows. The company is, after all, at the center of an intricate web of joint ventures and manufacturing contracts. The Fiat 124 Spider, for example, is built by Mazda. The Fiat Sedici that preceded the 500X was built by Suzuki. Models like the Dodge Stealth and Eagle Talon were built in Illinois at the Diamond-Star Motors joint venture before Mitsubishi took it over altogether. And Dodge continued selling the Mercedes-made Sprinter long after DaimlerChrysler split. The Ram ProMaster, though built by FCA in Mexico for the North American market, stems from a partnership in France with PSA Peugeot Citroen. And the ProMaster City is built in a joint-venture plant in Turkey, from which it's also sold by GM as an Opel in Europe and a Vauxhall in the UK. With all those deals coming and going, after all, what would one more add to the complexity?
