i used BMR lowers and panhard non adjustable. it helped a lot. no more wheel hop at all with street tires or DR's. the urethane bushings made for a harsher ride, but thats the trade off i guess.

When your car wheel hops you will know. My third gen used to wheel hop badly and lakewood lca's helped a lot. I have UMI LCA, LCA relocation brackets, and panhard rod on my ls1 and experience zero wheel hop with drag radials. I probably need to grease my bushings now that I think of it. Sounds like a plan friday before I go to the track.

IMO everyone should do some minor suspension work + sticky tires before they even think about changing anything else on their cars. It makes a huge difference for relatively little money.
