Is this what I get when I go over expansion joints on an interstate bridge?
Probably. Does the rear seem to kick to one side when you hit large bumps?

Mine was wicked with Icon springs and longer Fox 2.0 shocks. I had to install an aftermarket track bar to calm it down, then upgraded rear lower control arms helped even more.

Mine feels like it’s jumping one way or the other. I just chalked it up to an empty bed but I guess not.

Remembered this thread and thought I would post. I just replaced my factory rear shocks with Bils 5100s for lifts. I have 2" spacers on the factory coils. I am no longer getting the jumping you explained when I hit large bumps going highway speeds. It rides WAY better. I wish I would have replaced the shocks sooner.

I have bilsteins front and rear so it can’t be that I wouldn’t think.

Do you have the rear lifted and do you have stock length Bilsteins or Bilsteins for the lift you running?

Rear is lifted with a longer spring and I’m pretty sure the bilsteins are made for the lift I got the super lift off nick here who is a vendor.
