Title: excessive bounce
Post by: Sprinkler-Man on December 25, 2013, 07:35:22 am

80 GMC Sierra Classic Step side with 4in suspension lift, leafs in the front, blocks in the back.  I bought the truck this way so I have no idea who the lift is from.  The truck has excessive bounce when driving it.  Could this be a shock issue?  I planned on replacing the single shocks with dual shock kits front and rear.

Yes it can and if you're running the stock bench seat aka trampoline it seems even worse. Sounds like you have the right idea

I had really good luck with Rancho 9000's when I had a 4x4.  It had quad shocks from the factory but I didn't use them...
