My truck has 2,600 miles on her and it's a 072wdRCSB, the problem is i'm not sure if the way it rides is normal or not. The freeway in the area has a lot of continuous small bumps and when going down this freeway the truck (mainly the driver side, which worries me)gets pretty bouncy/rough. I know it's a truck but even driving by other Rams I don't see their dash board/steering wheel/side mirrorsjumping up and down like crazy...it even makes the truck a little harder to steer straight. My last couple of vehicles were trucks and the ride was rough but it didn't bother me like this one does....maybe because it's new and should ride better.

It's to the point now that some of my interior is popping out of place...the trim above the passenger siderear speaker and the whole panel under the rear window. I know the dealer is going to say it's normal (hope I didn't shock anyone there)...so what could cause this? Do your rams shake more on the driver side to the point that the side mirror jumps up and down twice as much as the passenger side?

 

I hate to say it but I think it is just thenature of the beast. When they updated the suspension and stiffened the 1500 frame for the 06 model year the ride suffered, especially in the regular cab. I have had 2006 and 2007 regular cab trucks and they bothride stiff as hell when compared to myolderRams.

 

Do your trucks absorb bumps evenly inyour reg cabsor does it transmit more into the drivers side like mine?

 

I have never really noticed but I will pay attention next time I drive it.

 

Check tire pressures, leave them in the lower portion of the recomended range, add some weight to the rear end, sand bags work well, 3 or 4 ought to do it. Mine rides like that when i fully inflate the tires to tow something

 

unless you have some big *** flat spots in your tires i had to lock up my brakes the other day (the cat is dead now) but my truck got a lilbump goin down the road now

 

LOL helluva speed bump!
