Default Wheel Hop

What suspension mods would help with wheel hop. Can this issue be helped with aftermarket traction arms?? Or is any other additions more helpful? My suspension other then the addition of sway bars is stock at the moment...

Check your rear diff bushing if you haven't replaced it yet.

Don’t think it would be the differential bushing. The car has suffered from wheel hop since 2003.....

Why even ask a question if you don't want a real answer? If you SEARCH, you'll find its one of the most common things thats replaced on these cars....

The differential mount is in great shape. Has around 15500 miles or so on it.

Since the op messaged to call me rude, I'll try again. My diff bushing blew at around 40k miles, so just because you are low mileage doesn't mean anything.

Better bushings will also reduce hop even if the OEM isn't blown. I have a diff brace but haven't put it on yet. Search and you'll find a dozen threads on wheel hop.
