I went ahead and did 320 lbs of sand and in the short amount of time I’ve tested it so far, it does seem like a noticeable improvement. The weight seems to help the truck “recover” quicker over bumps and I feel imperfections in the road less. It feels slightly different when driving, like I can...

Interesting. That helped all around or just any bounciness? My issue here is that every road by me that I do 80% of my driving on has vastly different pavement. One minute it’s brand new pavement, then it’s super rough pavement (no potholes though) then it’s cement, then it’s pavement with...

Nope, haven’t tried much of anything other than making sure the wheels were balanced and trying higher and lower psi. Trying to maybe to the cheaper options first. How much did they see to help you?

Does anyone here add weight to their bed to improve ride quality? If so, what’s the sweet spot in terms of weight, 300lbs? also, I’ve seen it helps mostly with winter/snow driving and helps out the bounciness. I don’t really see much of an issue with these. My biggest thing is literally if a...

Sounds like every dealership lol. They all lie.

Yeah it seems hit or miss. Some people seem have it and some don’t. Also some people seem to notice it or let it bother them more than others. The type of shoes worn when driving significantly changes it too. Dress shoes or boots and you can’t feel anything. for me personally it’s not just the...

I sent you a dm

The stock 275/60/r20. Maybe the tire thing everyone is saying makes sense. If I drive to work (highway driving is 2nd half of trip) I don’t really feel it. However going home (highway is first half of trip), I feel it when I’m close to home. It stays like that for maybe 15 miles or so or maybe...

After I drive some miles on the highway going 70 mph for maybe 10 miles or so- when going back on roads around town going under 50mph my ride quality seems worse. I feel like a “buzzy” feeling in my steering wheel and gas pedal. Seems to go away with a few miles of around town miles. It’s...

My truck is just over a year old with under 10k miles on it. Any chance the yoke would need to be greased already? Past few days have been cooler outside and about 30% of the time from a dead stop I feed a very faint clunk coming from the rear. Somewhat feels like brakes sticking but could be...

The POR-15 or the rustoleum?

Any suggestions to paint the rear axle pumpkin? I got some surface rust on it. Anyone use rustoleum high heat matte black spray with decent results?

True. Makes sense!

Not sure the mechanics of it, but there’s some posts I saw that show an electrical component by the brakes that controls it. Other vehicles certainly do it as well. Our Acura tlx type s firms up suspension in sport mode. Online it says the trucks change suspension with Continuously Controlled...

Gotcha. Yeah can’t hurt to ask. I think the tremor has a different gear ratio, believe it’s 3.73 whereas I have 3.55. Not sure about the fx4 ratios. If you both have the 3.73 your shift points are probably different than mine. But yeah going to see what a tech says
