Re: 73-87 C20 ride much different from newer 2500?

Not sure about the 3/4 ton, but I can say the 1/2 ton trucks ride much better.

My 1978 K10 has new aftermarket bucket seats, new cab mounts, and new Tuff Country EZ-Ride suspension, but it still rides hard empty, quite a bit better with a half-ton load, but still rides like a truck.

My 2017 K1500 Sierra Denali rides like a Cadillac, empty or with a half-ton load. I can't even tell the difference between empty and loaded. I'm sure the electromagnetic shocks are a big part of that. Whoever did the programming on those deserves a medal.
