    Default Axle Tramp

    Hey all,

    I have an 05 clubsport as a weekend / Fun car, Its great i love it ! But the problem is that it suffer's badly from axle tramp when the wheels break traction for whatever reason.

    How can I go about fixing this ? Its really starting to bug me.

    Epic contribution.


    My old ute used to tramp like a dog everywhere, then I whacked in a nolathane diff insert and that seemed to calm it down a fair bit. Failing that buy some crappy tyres and your tramping issues will disappear.

    As above, some stiffer polyurethane will help to reduce axle tramp.

    Try new tyres, I had a car that tramped like a kangaroo then the time came for new tyres and the tramping went away instantly.
