Re:BOUNCING

Buy some either Rancho9000 or Procomp MX-6. I have the procomp MX-6's and they help alot in bouncing and towing. We have the fronts on number 5. Doesnt really bounce.<br><br>SD03

Re:BOUNCING

Mine did the bouncing thing too...like a boat up front. Bilstein's on all corners did the trick...50 bucks a corner @ auto z-ne. Ride real nice with over 20k on the new shocks.<br><br>Michael

Re:BOUNCING

Fixed mine with Rancho 9000x adjustables. Run with mine set at 3 of 9 empty and 8 in the rear towing my gooseneck or 2500lbs of concrete like last weekend.<br><br>I bought mine at www.samsoffroad.com for 209 on special of 4 for the price of 3.

Re:BOUNCING

I stopped my front end bounce with KYB Gas-a-Just 3 years ago. they since came out with truck Mono-Max. Also a good price and similar to Bilstein in high pressure gas technology.<br>Not knocking them, but Rancho is low pressure gas charged.
