Is that where having the upper part of the hub connected to the frame by a watts linkage also a benefit and would help prevent damage or would it destroy that too? The forces would be different (side to side) than what the watts was intended to control (front to back), but would it help in that situation? Good luck with a quick and not to pricey fix.

No body or suspension damage thankfully. I got the car to roll back to the trailer
A Jag rear was made for a 230 HP 6 cylinder with 700 series bias ply
TREADED tires. When you put 500 HP and MT drag radials in their place the result eventually will not be pretty, nor cheap.
I have some drag radials for sale real cheap....
