Keep mistaking Tahoe for boat!!!! please help

[Eddie7644]

I have a 2004 tahoe. It has a level kit on it with 33s. No better way to explain how it rides other then saying i drive a boat. It floats going down the highway constantly on the wheel correcting its position. If i mash the gas it lifts up the front and pulls hard to the right. Bilstein shocks are a year old and i checked the front end multiple times and no problems. Its so bad my ol lady cant ride in it without getting sick from the motion. Need advice if at all possible

What tires? What condition are they in?

I'd suggest checking all swaybar end links, as one or more may have failed, causing a lot of unwanted motion.

 

[Eddie7644]

All sway bar links are new

I have 33" goodyear mtr and like new

In general "Sway Bars" would control rapid transit response, ie changes of direction. Of course everything needs to properly torqued but I doubt "Sway bars are the issue here?? If it's bouncing up and down that badly?? It has to be a shock or spring situation???

And if the shocks are new??? They "should" not be the problem?? So "assuming" the shocks are not the issue?? It has to be the springs??

2004 would mean T-Bars up front ... did you make "adjustments" there?? I'm not aware of every hearing about "floating" issue with T-Bars?? So if you made no changes there?? Maybe you just have "beat up" set of rear coil springs???

If it's "squatting" on acceleration ... that would point to an "issue" with the "rear suspension" ie the springs to soft for what you've done??

Are your front jounce bumpers touching at all?

They look like bump stops but they are an integral part of the suspension on these trucks.

Sounds like bad rear upper/lower control arm bushings, or bad track bar bushings.

Check jounce stops and throw some z71 springs in it.
