Rear suspension, rubber pinion bushings or spherical

^Agreed, both posts are right on.

Don't argue, just working with what I have now. Member selling upper torque box kit for $25, the kit for the rubber differential bushings is about $60 to my door and that is about all the budget I have for the suspension for now. Another member is donating a set of quads to me when he's got the time, plus one of my original quads still works. I did leave the old rubber bushings in the pinion ears. I didn't mean to imply my car was overly stiff, if anything it articulates better than ever. I have WAY more traction, that is what I feel the hop is from. Before there was so much slop in the rear suspension it just never hooked.

I can't build an all out racing car. Even using budget parts I spent $800 or so. At least I replaced a worn out dangerous suspension. Next up is interior as mine is useless. All I can salvage is the plastic and headliner.
