mine rides pretty damn rough too. It's the dang skyjacker "softride" springs fault...oh well. Your truck shouldn't be that rough, if the suspension's all stock...look into maybe a new set of springs, or the Zuk coil mod. Are the torsion bars cranked?

I think the torsion bars are cranked, it looks like the shackles in the back are a bit longer than stock too. I will get it lined out soon I hope.

Thanks and I believe I will pass on the bob thing, my beautiful wife isn't thrilled with it as is I don't think she would allow me to park it in the driveway if it looked worse!

Yeah, it's tough negotiating with the wife. With the bed as it is, you can always use the 'it's practical to have a truck, we can use it to haul that bookshelf you wanted' argument, but once you're take a sawzall and shorten the bed, she might start getting suspicious

maybe on single cab, but I'm not a fan of bobbed extended cabs... they just look a lot different to me...
