If you are on a budget, and just want to cure the hop. Go to ebay and buy a set of the cheap upper/lower boxed control arms with the urethane bushings. You can also replace the two housing bushings also. this should cure the wheel hop.

The quad shock runs kind of horizontally and the regular shocks that you all ready replaced are the one the are vertical or run up and down. Some cars had them, some didn't. And most cars that had them, have had them removed by now due to the facts of wheel/tire fitment issues. You can get by without them trust me. I don't have any and my car handles just fine. No wheel hop either.
