Rear axel brackets wont fix wheel hop if you have a bad bushing some were. good luck with it.

Thank You! That is the most in depth info I've seen yet.
Update: Well been reading about roll steer. Seems the steeper the angle of the rear trailing arm, the more pronounced roll steer becomes. Applying the basic rules of control arm mounting to our f-body, and it looks like the lower the mounting point used on the bracket, the more over steer will be created. But the flatter the car handles, the less the roll steer affect because roll steer happens then the axle is not parallel to the body. So its still up in the air as to what/how pronounced the effect will be.
Anyone have experience with this in the fbody?
Going to have to experiment to see what works for me.
