Rough ride with 2/4 DJM Kit - 2009
Just installed a DJM 2/4 kit with CALMAX shocks (rear). Took it out for the first ride yesterday and immediately noticed how rough the ride is. Feeling a lot of vibration and wheel play in the steering wheel under very normal driving conditions. I'm thinking wheel alignment and/or balancing. Any ideas or thoughts are welcomed.
Here are a few stats to consider:
'09 KR/SC...6.5 bed
DJM 2/4 Kit with CALMAX shocks
22" wheels
Yokohama Parada 305/45/22

Yes, they did the alignment...looking at having a second shop verify the alignment. Quite difficult to find a local shop here in Germany capable of aligning a full size truck with 22's.
Not sure if they removed the bumpstops or not. Educate me...where would I look? Oh, one last thing...the "before" pics I sent to you, you mentioned I may have a block in the back. Educate me on this one as well...where would I look?
