What do you mean, "jumps"? If you're referring to your clutch grabbing hard and giving you wheel hop, that's normal. You should probably upgrade your mounts if it's bouncing hard, though. Wheel hop is not good for axles...

Re: ok clutch is scary.... (hatchling37)
will new motor mounts stop the wheel hop?
or are u sayin the wheel hop wont be forced upon the axles as much if i get stiffer motor mounts....??

If you wanna get rid of wheel hop, get a torque dampner or a traction bar..full race makes them and its like 350$. I would also get stiffer motor mounts as well.

Energy suspension makes a kit called the hyperflex set... they're full suspension bushings, they help wheel hop alot, and then motor mount inserts and you should be all set... plus any other traction bars, etc.

Get better axles, like race axles if its as serious as you say. I think you may be over exagerating a little but thats ok to do sometimes but yeah better mounts also
