  • Body bounce:
Rating 5.0

What i did to eliminate my bounce was adding air bags. change out the shackle bushing to either OEM or polyurethane, you choice i went with polyurethane. Your leafsprings are probably gone, especially if they are OEM. You can change them. But try out the air bags /shackle bushing and also shocks (bilstein) if you haven't yet. For my motorhome, when im loaded, i run around 80psi non loaded 50psi no bounce even when driving on dirt roads to campground.

Pros: eliminate bounce, better ride
Cons: leafsprings probably gone
Vehicle: Toyota

I would get the Bilstein 5100s, Bilstein 5100s are a night and day difference from the Westcott preload collar lift (it's essentially a spacer lift)

Pros: night and day difference

I did 5100’s on my ‘19, 4/5 setting front lift, zero back. Nice and level-ish now that I’ve got a steel bumper. Feels better than stock by a wide margin

Pros: Feels better than stock
Vehicle: Toyota

I converted a 760GLE to 5.0 Mustang power and everything I could get from IPD. The Bilsteins / urethane bushings and sway bars made that thing a weapon on the curves.

Pros: weapon on the curves
Vehicle: Volvo

I run bilstein sport with lesjöfors oem style springs and it holds great in corners but little too harsh on ruff roads. Also helps to have r16s instead of r18s even tho they look a lot better

Pros: holds great in corners
Cons: little too harsh

Just had new upper and lower control arms installed yesterday, with Bilstein 6112s ( set at the 2nd setting which is supposed to be 1.9inch of lift) and 5160s in the rear. The truck rides very odd, seems very bouncy between 10-50 miles per hour on regular roads. Also noticed that there are chunks missing out of the LT/RT struts, looks like the springs are making contact with the upper control arms.

Pros: new control arms installed
Cons: bouncy ride, chunks missing
Mileage: 116000 km
