I'm having the same issue i have injected performance solid mounts and spl solid diff mounts, stock transmission mount, my car has about 98k miles on the body and about 8k miles on a built motor. I have the jwt clutch and flywheel setup, i change all wheel bearings thinking it was that, but i am leaning toward it being a driveshaft issue, i've looked all around underneath the car only thing i found was my front tires having uneven tire wear in the inner tires. But that wouldn't cause pedal vibration or on the rear area. My jwt clutch currently has about 18k miles on it. Any help would greatly be appreciated. thanks.

Feels like my firewall is not connected to the car. The gas pedal feels like an electronic foot massager

You've been driving it for over a month like that? Take it to a mechanic.

Did you ever get anywhere with this?

I had violent hop from the wheels when they were spun, but my rear diff mount was blown, a little fluid leakage shown, and long dried up, but you could see small tears in the bushing if you got up under there with a flashlight.

It was great after fitting the whitelines, but it seems to be back about 1500 miles later, now i'm wondering about engine mounts, or what?

Would engine mounts cause rear wheel hop? I haven't found a solution to the problem, I'm really getting frustrated driving on the highway for longer than 10 minutes with the massaging gas pedal...

I'm struggling to see how it would cause hop, but i'm also struggling to see how i have wheelhop again just months after replacing the rear diff bushing.

Funniest sh*t I've read in a while... Seriously, are you trying to destroy your car?

At what point are you going to take your car to a mechanic? After your **** falls apart? or right after? Seriously stop guessing and take it in before you hurt you, your car or someone else on the road.

Hahaha you guys are funny, I know it's not as serious as you guys think it is. It's more annoying than anything. It's like how much can you stand the vibration from the shifter, it's always there so get used to it.
