As the LSD transfers torque to the loaded wheel then that wheel hops up as the one in the air hits the ground and achieves more grip. All of this repeating creates a resonant frequency that begins to damage your differential links. This is a very laymans way of describing it but the idea is there. Stiffer suspension and bushings helps this by not keeping both wheels on the ground more effectively.
Ahh..ty for the explanation i knew little, but wasnt shure becauce i have seen drift videos where wheel hop occurs, just thought it had to do something with the differentials. Am sorry for the wrong description, allthough i think OS Giken is the one i would go for just my opinion.
