>From Chevy High Performance Magazine:

The rearends in GM cars that came equipped with torque arms from the factory 
are prone to brake hop under hard braking on road courses. Brake hop under 
deceleration in third- and fourth-gen F-bodies is generally attributed to a 
flexible torque arm, a lack of shock valving, or excessive "plowing" under 
braking. These factors unload the rear of the car, which results in brake 
hop.
