Please Help… 99 GMC Sierra 1500 4×4 Ext Cab Suspension

Question:

> Standard suspension

A few things to look into. 1)  Do you have P or LT rated tires?  LT’s will ride much firmer than P-rated tires. 2)  What is your tire pressure?  35 psi should give you the best ride. 3)  I’ve had great results with Gabriel Sport-Ryder shocks on my truck. Ride nice, cheap as dirt, lifetime warranty, and 40k later they’re still going strong. Doc

Response:

Since I bought the truck a few years back (used) I have always found it rough on bumps… especially the front, not smooth at all. Similar trucks I have rode in I find the suspension is much more forgiving. Mine seems to ride like a heavy duty 2500. I was going to buy new shocks… but I am not certain if that is the problem. Can anyone help me out? Thanks
