Normal Launch causes drivetrain flex?

I have an issue that feels like its major drivetrain flex when I accelerate from a stop normally. One issue I can actually see is that my shifter feels like its struggling to break through my center console! haha. The car also feels like it kinda sling shots off of the first couple gears... like its someone that doesnt know how to drive stick.

I have oredered the COMPLETE Hyper-Flex kit of Energy Suspension bushings and also some new U-joints. I was reading something about changing the location of the torque arm, but that seems a little too dramatic for a v6. Have I missed anything that could also be the problem?

btw, anyone know the average life of a differential gears?
