If you do a bit of a search, axle tramp fixes have been discussed before. :)

VE SS MY9.5, VL LS2
There are solid rear upper and lower control arm available for the G8 over in the states. They come in a adjustable length and fixed length. These don't twist and torque up on themselves like the standard pressed steel ones. I have a set coming for my VE SS

Looking
yes tinny is right (again) the easiest (and probably cheapest) way to fix axle tramp is to install some rear subframe bushes ... its like 500 installed or something like that

Worst car i have ever driven for this problem.

No one should have to put their hard earned towards fixing this rubbish condition that exits in the VE range.

Cheers.
