Bed Hop - Advice please!

still have factory springs with the shackles but I can certainly check that. Thanks!

 

And I don’t, but good to have a confident answer as to whether it will impact on road suspension travel.

 

Exactly opposite for me....I was taking an outdoor dining set with a heavy stone top to my friends home and the truck was butter smooth with that load....I went over one stretch of road unloaded that we took on that day and felt like I was going to bounce off the road. It’s really pissing me off lol

 

That’s another question I had....was also considering upgrading to the TRD front SB as swell but wanted to do the rear first. My set up is a bit on the firm side already so don’t want to go any more that direction.

 

RSB took most of the body roll out on its own. I have the Offroad shocks and I haven't noticed any negative road feed back with just the RSB. The FSB made a difference but to a slightly lesser degree. I sense some slight more road feedback but it's slight and not overbearing (something I am sensitive to). If I were to throw numbers on it RSB was a 75% improvement to handling, FSB was a 25%. If you offroad more than 50% of the time I probably wouldn't get them and would get adjustable shocks instead.

 

Don’t off-road at all. Already have Toytec Boss with 3” lift up front and I have a decent about of road “feedback” and the shackles with Toytec shocks in the rear lifted 1.25”. Mainly a daily driver and do tow a boat a few times a year.

 

I had a 2007 DC that bounced bad. Added a class 5 hitch to it. Probably weighed 130 lbs. Helped some , I think also tying the frame together at the back also helped reduce harmonics. Built a 34 ZZ top car in the 90's had some frame harmonics, added a extra support between the rear frame members. Helped a lot ,that is where I got the idea for the 2007 Tundra. I over torqued the bolts by 10% just to tie everything together as good as I could. If you have a hitch disregard. 34ford

 

i almost think the full squish pic is more impressive. almost.

 

Yeah, Bruce and I like the squished landing pic best. Most fun is driving it playing with “live” shots and watching the suspension do its thing.)

 

sometimes i wish i was still in the area. would love to come out and play.

 

We’d love to play in the dirt with you, Sean!

 

hope to make it happen at some point

 

Nice picture

 

It has to do with the road and expansions i happen to drive on I25 and I 40 and it is terrible even worse in 2500

 

Bad Ass!!!! such a good shot.

 

So just to summarize either load some weight or make tundra into a hovercraft hybrid to rid self of tundra twerk. Got it.

 

Yup. That’s the formula!

 

I ended up at the dealership... they charged me 85 bucks to look at the suspension and said that everything was within spec. They filled the tires to 40 psi. It rides better but filling the tires was all they said they could do. It still shakes when I am on a concrete freeway but does ride better.

 

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but in almost every make of vehicle I know of, SuperCabs/Extended Cabs/Double Cabs exhibit more bed bounce/'shuddering' over expansion joints than Quad Cabs/Crew Max. Not exactly sure why it is, but I can tell you that I've driven both my F150 SuperCab and a Tundra Double Cab on a local stretch of interstate and the expansion joints launch them into the air (lol) whereas the same stretch in my CrewMax is no big deal.
