Swap up your sway bar bushins with some Energy Suspension ones, the old ones are prob. worn.

I think I am experiencing the same thing but not at HIGH speeds. I can drive pretty much anything and this is scaring me.

I've got a '02 Kon. "2 Beltech spindles, Nitro Drop 2 shocks all around, and I am assuming a "3 Ground Force rear drop spring. @ various speeds It feels like it's rocking from side to side. @ highway speeds its all kinds of squirrely.

It's my wife's truck so I really need to figure it out fast. I need to look into it but I think the only way to get a lowered look and a controled/safe ride out of these things is with the autoride system. I am scared to find out how much that is going to cost. That is even if the system will work in a lowered truck.

the only thing that I can think of is that the swaybar end links are too long. I wouldn't think that the fronts would have changed since I used spindles. Been wrong before.

Just a follow up. I checked my 6 month old Nitro 2's and one was blown. So I replaced the rear shocks with the stockers with extensions and, wa la. All most all of the freakiness was taken out for the ride. Now the front seams like its a little wiggly. I am thinking that the Nitro 2's just can't hack it. I will probably replace the fronts wit hthe stockers as well.
