suspension (airbags)
So for some odd reason my passenger side seems to ride as if there is no shock installed. Bounces a lot more than the driver side. I've replace the shocks with new ones. but i still get that passenger side bounce. not sure if maybe my A arms shafts might need to be replace maybe?
Thanks for help... |

Re: suspension (airbags)
IHmmm that sounds strange, do you have sway bars?

Re: suspension (airbags)
Yeah i got that as well. I know it can't be the shock angle since both side are the same. Maybe it's my cross bar shaft.

Re: suspension (airbags)
It could be bind. If you're not sure, re-check things to eliminate that.

Re: suspension (airbags)
Yes. Unless you're 100% sure, it's worth checking.

Re: suspension (airbags)
So the shaft needs to be loose enough to turn by hand right?

Re: suspension (airbags)
There shouldn't be much resistance on the older threaded rubber lined steel bushings when pivoting them from compression to extension. Check upper & lowers.
The later 73-87 rubber pieces will have more resistance/bind.

Re: suspension (airbags)
Anytime. I ruled your shocks out because of the mention about them already being replaced. You wouldn't expect that so it makes trouble shooting more difficult.
Share some pics!
