I have a 02 dakota quad cab 4.7L V8 4x4, airaid intake, and flowmaster dual exhaust. But ever since I bought the truck in August 02 it has always had a bounce at around 40-50mph, the dealer thought it was the tires with flat spots so they replaced them, they also thought it was the front end alignment so they re did that. Well guess what it still bounces, and I have taken it to a local shop and they can't figure it out either. Because at 70mph it is smooth as a whistle. I was just wondering if you guys could give me some ideas.

I had the same problem. I replaced the shocks with Monroe Reflex, Adjusted the tire air pressure to 35 psi.

This has reduced the bounce to a very small barely noticable thing.

Hope this helps.

I have some anti-gummyberri juice. I would let you know the ingredients but its top secret. I`ll send you some. Just pour it in and away you go. Take the bounce right out of your dak.
