Re: Rear end Bouncing

How are the rear shocks? is it a leaf or a coil rear? I see it is a 4 eyes. I have seen many of the older trucks [remembering my youth]driven by older men around here the trucks were passed down farm truck maybe to a farm hand or a hand's family member but anyway the were retired from hard service the rear shock broke off in most cases those trucks hit a bump and would bounce until the truck would stop at the store or whatever. It was so funny to follow one just bouncing up and down in the back like they did. Of course I was driving a leaf spring truck by then and never understood why they did it until I was a little older and gained some understanding. Jim
