Default bmr anti wheelhop kit with revshift cradle bushings?

Finding out my car has the BMR opinion brace and anti wheelhop kit has me thinking..... could I replace the cradle bushings with revshift ones, and still use the kit?


Also....I have the revshift diff bushing sitting here, can I also run this in conjunction with the BMR pinion brace?

I'm in the same boat, didn't do anything to the cradle...just decided to figure it out some other time. Had all BMR stuff from the previous owner and didn't realize it until i got under to switch out the cradle bushings.

Sell the BMR stuff (if you can) and put the $ toward axles.

Yea that does sound like a good idea, I've been reading alot on here people rocking g-force axles and how that's the way to go to rid the wheel hop.

You could keep the BMR cross brace and run that with the Revshift cradle bushings. Otherwise get rid of the BMR anti-wheelhop kit. It is useless.

As far as diff bushing with pinion brace. I currently run that setup without any issue. If anything it adds a bit of structure to the weakest part of the diff.

Sounds like a good idea, I have a long damn day ahead of me in Nov when I'm home. Need to do the cradle, front arm bushings and new sway bar bar bushings.
