Mine does the same thing. There's a few spots on a highway I use to get to work that feels like someone took my rear shocks out and welded some steel rods in their place

mine does this going down highway 75 in texas near allen/plano, it happened before i lowered it and i thought it was just my truck but still does it after being lowered, i think alot of the time he bumps just hit at a certain time and the vibrations just carry through the suspension, its done it when i was lifted 6" stock, and lowered.

must be a leaf spring rear thing. Mine runs fine no relocation of light back end bounce around. Though I had a 98 ranger years ago with the offroad package and I did have experience things like that.

Same here in PA. Brand new roads and they are rougher than wiping your ass with 80 grit sandpaper. We don't get new roads often, just horrible patchwork that makes them worse than when they started.

But to OP I have the same thing i hit 60-65 on a stretch of rd on my way to work and it bounces you all over. Helps wake me up tho. Lol

Yeah once the rear suspension went to coil springs the problem ceased to exist.

I have had that happen on only one road ant that does it to everything. Its expanded joints in the concreat and if your going at the right speed it feels like your out to sea. When I put the Bilsteins on it helped alot.
