I noticed my 2021 Sport began making a loud "THUMP" when crossing over speed bumps. It was not doing that while I had the hard top on, but only after I removed it completely yesterday. Anyone else notice it?

Is it hopping? Try getting a video.

May check your spare tire and make sure it’s sucked up tight, may not all the way up?

Also...do you make a bed divider with a 2x6 or 2x4s? They shrink and bounce around too.

Also, did you lift it? Make sure everything is installed correctly...sometimes tall lifts cause the springs to arch and tag the track bar.

Mine did the for a day until I remembered I had the hitch still in from towing the day before. Took it out and all is quiet back there.

As it has been a few days, I wanted to check in and see if you were still experiencing concerns. If so, send our team a private message with more details.

With a JTR -- speed bumps/humps are simply optional. ;)

It pisses my wife off nonetheless.
