I've only drove the truck twice now and it's the ruffest thing I have ever drove
I don't know if the springs I have are to stiff or it's the wheels. Any ideas to why this thing is so ruff

depending on what lift springs those are they could be stiff as a brick (rough country) or skyjacker has some decently soft springs, but not the best.

a v8 will fix part of your problem, but i would look into a regear, 4.88 or 5.13 for sure. might look into a hybrid m50d if your comfortable with trannys. 2.3/4.0 hybrid.

Forgot to update but I went to let some air out of the tires and it was 10 psi over the tire recomedation good reason for it to be ruff driving I'm gonna have to check my tires next time I have that garage mount em
