Not sure if you know, but “these are short wheel base trucks. You should expect some bounce and stuff ride”.
Thanks for the laugh.
Actually I have tried disconnecting the shocks and driving. Made it more bouncy, didn’t change the stiffness. Front end just bounced like a ball. Shocks cut down in most of that type of bouncing.
