is there a Differential Brace out there for the fc like the Banzai Racing made up for the fd?

trying to get rid of my wheel hop and thinking this option would help if there is one out there

have you changed the stock bushings by something like urethane??
if not, that would be the best option...

changing bushings and the diff mount will help a lot. also search "pinion snubber" for the dif

Hypertek

There is a sub-frame brace for the rear. AutoEXE makes it.

the pinion snubber is the only way to go with these cars. You might also check that your front differential mount isn't torn. I managed to tear every front differential mount I had until I installed a pinion snubber.

im looking at the energy hyper flex full kit i might as well change every one while im at it. ill order the solid diff mounts and will try and track down the brace and the pinion snubber.. hope to have everything done at ones so i can get over this wheel hop..

ITsWILL what pinion snubber did you go with i can only find them for ford or mopar or do you have a pic of where you installed it..thanks

has anyone made a solid front diff mount to go along with the solid rear mount. it doesnt really make sense to get a solid rear mount with a rubber front and pinion snubber. does it?

I had to make mine, and so far it feels really good, I broke 3 mounts and had enough of that rubber bullshit.

Its actually just a bump stop, the one I got was actually too short and I wound up shimming it with washers to be perfect.

bump stop for pinion snubber

Here's a writeup for changing the front diff mount and adding a pinion snubber. I used the same bump stop PvillKnight7 linked to, and approximately 1/2" worth of washers shims it enough to preload against the nose of the diff.

I've been meaning to put a pinion snubber in. I bought one. I just don't want to pull the subframe and the storage bins out because of the inevitable broken interior pieces and rusted bolts

i actually got my bins out with no problem, i dont remember them being that bad.

you should use a snubber $12 from autozone 30min install ...on your drivers side tray open it up you have to drill a hole over the mount and install your snubber ...then this will stop the travel of the mount...no more hop...make sure you put silicone on the thread of the snubber and hole

I just boxed in a factory front diff mount with steel so it can't move. It has worked great for over a year. Drivetrain noise will go up a bit though.

You MUST use solid subframe bushings with a solid front diff mount and solid rear diff bushings or you will break the mounting tab off the subframe.

I thought they came that way from the factory? I've never seen a working power antenna.
