Wheel Hop

Hey guys I have a 1993 lude and I just got done installing the Energy Suspension Polyurethane bushings in the front. Now every single time I start in 1st gear I have massive wheel hop. I had motor mount inserts before I installed all the other bushings and didn't have this problem. Anyone know how to get rid of this because it's extremely annoying and doesn't feel good on the lude!

Thanks,
Matt

I was also going to add, it looks something like this:

But thing is, it does it every time I launch from 1st....and it's just normal driving. It's just really annoying and it never did it before I installed these mods....

Should I fork out the money for a traction bar?

You might be getting "binding" in the bushings . It's the one reason I replaced my bushings with OEM rubber.
