Differential Mount

Anyone seen this before?


I am hoping it was just the shock of launching combined with the crappy rubber bushing. Got a new mount and put in some poly bushings so hopefully it holds up better.

No, but is the a V8/6 swap? Looks like a dual exhaust on there.

Well if you’re getting a lot of wheel hop then you might need better rear shocks

I am planning to put on some adjustable coil overs soon but when this happened there really wasn't any noticeable wheel hop. I went from a dead stop at the drag strip and it broke almost instantly, I only rolled a few feet off the line. It's possible it was cracked or something to begin with and I didn't know.
