Was he talking metal-to-metal welding (no rubber) or window weld... ha ha ;D

Anyway, what do you need to do to stop or control wheel hop? Inserts help keep the motor from moving around, which I thought was good to help equalize and stabilize the engine's weight/pressure on the front wheels, minimizing wheel hop.

If you're hopping, your tires "should" be getting some traction, otherwise, they would spin. So now it goes to how to keep the wheels on the ground? The only thing I can suggest is a stiffer suspension. Front to keep the wheels down and rear to minimize the backwards motion that could take weight off the front tires...

I don't know. Food for thought or I'm full of ----. :D

main things to eliminate wheel hop are motor mounts and suspension, traction bars if you have the coin. i have a good shocks and springs, just need to replace my bushings and get some mounts. 600 bucks from hasport, fuk dat, looks like i'm going with the insterts :P

I thought Summit's traction bars were $280+something... ???

Someone else was talking about those Jimfab things too a couple of days ago, but I don't know what the $ is. I've never seen them installed, but I'm curious to know if/how they work.

eh, ---- it, i just got the inserts, they should be good enough, i have two torque mounts alos that i filled really good with window weld, the actual mouns i didn't do such a good job, so with their powers combine, i should be stiff ;D

40 bucks verses 650, i figured i'd try these first :P
