Will RoadActive Suspension Kit Help With Wheel Hop on 2016 Ford F-350
Question:
Hello I have a f-350 srw 2016 4x4 crew cab short bed. Not sure if you have ever heard about this rear wheel hop problem these have at around 45-52 and then it quits. Do you think this may possible help with that or have you heard about anybody trying this and whether it has helped or not? Don’t really want to spend this kind of money if it gives me no results. Thanks for your time.

The RoadActive Suspension Custom Leaf Spring Enhancement Kit # RAS3611-S is actually a great solution to eliminate the wheel hop you are experiencing. This system eliminates axle wrap, wheel hop, and bottoming out. The force that is causing the wheel hop will be absorbed by the RAS kit.
In addition to solving your wheel hop problems, the RAS will also keep you level when towing or hauling while helping to reduce sway and body roll. It also helps to extend the life of your leaf springs, shocks, shackles, and tires. This features a bolt-on installation and is made in the USA.
If you're towing or hauling a lot you may want to consider the heavy duty kit which is the # RAS3611-SHD. Otherwise the standard duty # RAS3611-S would be the way to go. Neither of these will fit vehicles with factory top overload springs. If you have factory top overload springs you would need the heavy duty # RAS3611-SLHD instead.
I have attached an installation video for your reference.
