@Dodgevity I definitely love the beefier and aggressive tread looking tires. Makes my Durango look more ERRRRRR! If that makes any sense lol

Yes, but I was just laying out the easiest path to success, based on your initial question. Big beefy tires and smooth ride are not synonymous. That's called having your cake and eating it too. If you keep the big tires and soften the suspension, the ride will feel better but your handling will suffer . I've got the heavy duty suspension with the tow package and somewhat wide tires (255). I keep the pressure around 30 psi. The quad cab is a bit heavier so it rides pretty good but you do feel the potholes.

Lower your tire pressures a bit. That'll help some.

I just put a set of KYB Monomax shocks on from Rockauto. Made a big difference in the ride. I had already done new tires and an alignment.
