Rate my shopping list

Looking to either lessen or eliminate the rear wheel hop, along with stiffen up my drivetrain with some new mounts. How's my cart looking? Unless I'm missing something, the only thing i'm debating is switching to an adjustable toe rod instead. All rear end parts are BMR and the motor mounts are Prothane

get full cradle bushings. the Delrin are the best. you can do aluminum too. There will be no noise adding solid cradle bushings. cradle bushing make a big difference.

What would you eliminate then? I'm just following the thread found in the suspension section on eliminating wheel hop, wasn't sure if it was a "pick one" or "go for all three" so I figured the extra upgrades can't hurt.

Duly noted, I'll check them out.

the motor mounts wont affect wheel hop but you will need all the rest.

I notice the bk024 is cheaper than the kit I have in here. Less parts? Not complaining about a smaller bill, just want to make sure I'm not missing out on anything

That's because the Bushing Kit you originally selected also had Diff Bushings. I only suggest Diff Bushings if you are leaning towards a Track car only - the Diff Bushings will transmit a lot of Noise & Vibration.

The Cradle Bushings, you can go as hard as you want
