Hi all,
The otherday while on my way home from dinner I hit a tire eating pot hole while driving about 50 mph while in the middle of making a 90 degree turn on an on ramp to a highway. My trac's front left tire hit the pot hole and I "drifted" size ways for quite a bit until I regained traction. Since then the body roll, 1960's caddy pimp bounce, and the feeling of truck about to roll over has been excessive. Case in point, while making slight turn on the highway going 60-70 mph, where there is an expansion joint, my truck bounces and feels loose, almost as if I am close to loosing control. It always had this to a point by not enough to scare me. I looked under the truck and my right rear shock is leaking, I still have the stock shocks with 30,000 miles (OMG I know). Here is my question, is this a simple replace the shock solution or something more serious. If so I need to get on the ball as my warranty ends October 4th.
