Re: '72 c10 front suspension question

Bigdav160, I kind of thought the same thing. But until I can make up my mind on a new set of rims I'm kinda stuck with what I got. If I had the means I would pull the tires off the rims and give them a good hard look myself.
Would bad shocks give a rough bouncy kind of ride? If I jump on each corner it settles within 1 or 2 bounces. On the rear I have leaf springs with caltracs traction bars and rear swaybar. The shocks are kyb gasajust and only maybe 2 years old. The shocks I took off had no action at all in them. It was like sliding two tubes back and forth over each other. Lol. Truck drove great though. Now it's a lot better obviously. With the new stuff on there. I wonder if I have my suspension too tight and it's working against itself causing it to bounce and not settle. Or crappy roads around where I'm at. Been tracking my brain trying to figure it out. At least i can do most of the investigating in my driveway now that i got the tire situation figured out.
