Most of the hopping/bumping that I get is from the front wheels. Don't see where the diff has anything to do with that. I think it's a lot more basic than that. Cold tires+sharp angle=skipping. Like when you run a dry finger over a wet glass.
If the OP is getting bumping in the back, then I fully agree with you.
