Wheel hop problems

I'm experiencing some serious wheel hop problems in my 99 maxima. Whever there is any kind of wheel slippage in dry or wet conditions, the front wheels start to hop. I've already gone through two sets of motor mounts. In my 95 GXE, I never experienced any wheel hop. What could be the problem? Do I need new front struts/shocks?

find jclaw's traction bars, they do wonders. other than that, i'd go with poly urethane filled motor mounts. that's what everyone will tell you anyways.

i don't run with stock springs/struts setup, so i'm not sure if you'll need new ones...

I'm doing a GD (10 people) if there is enough interest (Check the 4th page of the thread).
