Hey all,
I’ve searched the forums, but can’t seem to find anything providing the solution to some rear end bouncing.
so far starters…. The mods
2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon
- 2.5” Clayton overland plus lift kit (comes with the triple rate springs)
- falcon 3.3 shocks
- 35x12.5 Goodyear duratrc at 28 psi
- smartcap, 270 awning, iKamper 2.0, fridge/freezer ( so a decent amount of weight which will only grow when fully loaded for camping trips)
What’s happening is when hitting bumps, mainly the segmented concrete highway, I get a bad bounce that is only up and down. No sway during this. It is repetitive and constant until the segmented Highway section ends and the truck smooths out almost instantly. I do notice the same feeling on side streets where it provides a similar situation.
I have adjusted the shocks settings messing with them to see if adjustments would solve the issue. No luck.
I’ve removed the weight from the truck, and it seemed to get a little better but did not solve it.
i redesigned the mounting of the iKamper to lower it closer to roofline to see if reducing the amount of air getting under the RTT would help, which it did but the bouncing is still present
are other people experiencing this and I am just being to critical on the truck?
Any advice, things to check, etc would be greatly appreciated
thank you
