wheel hop and the 1le trans mount

[Meatyshells]

i have been getting wheel hop and i cant figure out the reason why. Went under the car and looked at all the mounts and such, didnt see anything broken or torn.
I have weld in sub frames, tubular lower control arms /w poly bushings, eibach prokit lowering springs, and lower control arm relocating brackets. Now my wheel hop isnt really bad, but it's there. And when i shift hard into 2nd my shifter kinda jumps.

Could these problems be related to not having a 1/2'' spacer when using the 1le trans mount?

If you can get a hold of a V8 transmission crossmember nab that sucker. Put that in WITHOUT the spacer. It basically acts as one and it better. The only other thing I could think of is a TA.

I know when I put mine in it was a world of difference in how sturdy and planted the rearend felt.

wheel hop can be caused by the type of tires you have,yes TIRES, i got different wheels and started to get bad wheel hop,even in the rain,when i switched back it was gone,if the tire is trying to hook it will either hop or spin.
