What tires
Hi Edwin
What you discription is not uncommon, so let me ask some questions:
What tires are you running?
Are they hard from age?
Tire pressure?
Have you checked the function of your shocks?
With the link disconnected dose the arm move easily or with resistance?
With my HUP tire pressure and age of tires make a very noticeable difference in the ride, more than the shocks, though with good shocks (original untouched) you can definitely tell when one of the shock links let's go. The welds on the links tend to break over the years I've rewelded all four. Some non-directional tires get really hard with age.
With my C60L Cargo with no shocks and no load the book pressure 35/75 f/r it will compress your spine to hit certain bumps at 20MPH. Hit the same bump with my C60S with the radio truck, with shocks, 55/55 pressure you hardly notice the same bump. Both trucks have the same tires all new a few years ago.
When I dial back the pressures on the C60L till I get a little deflection improves the ride greatly when I hit the same bump. I'm in the process of putting the shocks back on the C60L, they work fine clamped down to the bench, will report back on the difference.
Cheers Phil
