bouncing on the freeway

[dmjd2003]

Hello I hope I'm in the right placed to ask this question, and I wont have time to responded back today but I will tommorow thanks!

I have 06 F250super duty PSD 4x4 stock!
I like to know how to stop the bounceing when on the freeway, when i'm not towing anything.
Sometime it's cool because my sons back there going Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah during every exspantion joint bounce. What would be a good set up to stop this and still beable to have the same towing GVRW ect.
I hope I'm asking the right question?

Thank You
Mike D

Welcome to concrete freeways... No real way to stop it, your wheel base is just right to be at the top of every one. Concrete curls at every joint and so you get the nice bounce...

Its nice once you get your wifes boobs done... The bounce is rather distracting, but she will laugh at you... Mine does all the time...

you can play with air pressures on teh rear tires up or down it may help some,
also your rear springs are uhhhhh stiff
add some balast out back. softer shocks
but even then your still going to get teh hobby horse syndrome

i would suggest big ..... see above about female passengers

first, welcome to the site.

when we drive down to LA thru Ventura we go thru the same thing. "Dolphin Effect"
First time it did that to us, I thought my fillings were going to fall out...
It was fun watching the wife though
There is no magic speed either. I tried 45-85 and it was the worst around 55-65.
It's kind of fun at night, the lights bounce all over the place and people move out of the way thinking you might be and emergency vehicle....

like it was said above, the wheel space and concrete spacing...

get your local state highway dept. to shave the concrete highways to level them out, you only need several million im sure.

So far all who have replied have super duties (with the redesigned front springs). You ain't seen nuthin' till you bounce in an OBS PSD. Talk about nutz in your throat!

The redesigned front leaf springs started in '99 when the super duties replaced the OBS. Bama, take a ride in a 94-97. You'll never forget what bumps really feel like.
