Ingalls stiffy or JBP Control Arm bushings?

The title says it all. Im getting an RSM Tranny mount and im just looking to rid of the wheel hop and I have no idea if the tranny mount itself will cure it all so if I had to add extra to it, what would you guys choose?

i have the tranny mount and the stiffy, i was the test car, and have yet to get wheel hop again. my opinon would be get the bushings if money is not an object. get the brace if install is a problem, stiffy installs in 5 minutes.

Bushings.

From my experience with the weapon-r brace, they are useless once you have good mounts in the car. I think the torque braces are a nice piece to see in the engine and for a removable option but are generally useless since by nature they are going to allow the engine to move just soften the movement (hence engine damper).

So did you have the trans mount when you were testing the stiffy?

Talking

I dont wanna have to buy anything extra at all other than the tranny mount if its gonna take care of most of my wheel hop. I do have a 7.5 inch wheel with 225s on them so it helps a bit more than the stock.

Id rather spend the money on the prokit!
