I have owned this truck since 193,000 miles and have replaced the old front bumper with a new heavy duty one and since then have noticed it drives uncomfortably rough i went over all ball joints/tie rods and had to replace and then noticed to much slop in the steering so replaced the gear box which needed done when I bought but I'm used to the slop. Also replaced shocks with extended rough country, would my problem come down to coil springs?

 

How much heavier is the new front bumper?

 

I'm not sure of the weight as I custom built and didn't think to weigh it when it was off but with the steel I used and added winch I'm going to say roughly 200lbs

 

Yeah, and that contributes to your rough ride. If you have spacers on the springs as well for the level, that doesn't help either. Slightly meaner, taller springs might help...... but, it IS a truck.......

 

Will 3500 springs fit in place? And yes it is a truck that works Alot. I guess I should have said unsafe rather than uncomfortable.

 

Check the part numbers. Real possibility the 2500's used the same springs.....
