Sweet setup! That all sounds good, but you could still have a blown shock. Look for oil leaking out. You can replace rubber isolators with stiffer materials, but that affects NVH in a bad way. And because the driven wheels are also used to steer, there's not much more you can do to control FWD wheel hop. That's why I'd hope to find a blown shock, and fixing it solves the problem.

Another thought--a 2" drop might be contributing to the windup. The wheel climbs up, hitting the bump stop, which drives it back down... A little more suspension travel might help.
