wheel hop?
i've got a quaife LSD in my LS tranny, omni coilovers, and stock mounts, but my wheels right now are 18's (long story, i kno they're not the best choice), but is wheel hop going to be a problem or no?
what about with a traction bar?

Engine mounts and control arm bushings are the main causes of wheel hop. You can stiffen your stock engine torque mounts by filling the voids with window-weld (layer it so the inside dries completely), or get poly inserts.
To combat control arm bushing deflection, you can replace the front LCA's compliance bushing with poly versions, but I've read several threads that show this poly part experiences accelerated wear. I'm guessing traction bars are much better, much more expensive alternative.
PS: Don't go fixin a problem you don't have...
