Does anyone else with the powertrax locker get wheel hop? It was raining today and I was sitting at the redlight, and, well, I got on it. The ENTIRE jeep shook like nothing else. Everything I had in the jeep was bouncing around. It was one of the craziest things Ive ever seen. It does this anytime Im in a staight line and the wheels spin. Gravels, grass, wet blacktop, it doesnt matter, the back wheels shake like crazy. The first time I had it happen, I was towing a boat out of the boat ramps' parking lot. It had just rained and I went to pull out(which was on a hill) and it wouldnt move. Both back wheels were spinning and once again the entire jeep shook.

I have the OME rear shocks.

Sounds like your back tires lost traction, will fish tail with locker or LSD.
