I want to make sure I have all my ducks in a row to hopefully minimize or get rid of most of the wheel hop. I am going to replace the motor, trans, and diff mounts. Cradle bushings and axels. Am I missing anything else? I am going to use creative steel for the mounts and bushings and Gforce for the axels. My car is 99.99% stock but I am planning on increasing HP in the future.

clutch/flywheel (LS7, LS9, etc. depending on power plans). more to get rid of the parade clunk but still a must do in my book.

You are definitely on the right path firming up the drivetrain before adding power. I did gforce axle and diff mount right when I got the car. Happy modding.

deff put a clutch on your list before adding power..

An 8.8 from Creative steel is a great investment. I would be wary of putting poly bushings in the control arms if the car is a DD as they squeak, for track use they are great. A good shifter makes a world of difference as well, and I will second the clutch. I had great luck with the katech ls9x clutch on my 04, took a lot of abuse at autox events and with regular driving (I was at just above stock power levels). Upgraded sways are a good investment.

Just an opinion . Nothing wrong with CS.

CS bushings are greasable, which is a nice advantage.

Very true on both accounts....just giving him options.

Any bushings can be greased... All you need is a zerk, the proper drill size, and a tap.

Its not my DD so I am not too worried about squeaks. I am just hoping for no vibrations. I guess for now I will do the mods I mentioned and save the work on the clutch/increase in power for the future. At this point in time I just want the wheel hop to disappear so I don't have to worry about breaking anything.
