Hi Mike and Ron;
I was the one asking about the ride. My 00 QC seems very bouncy, even on what appears to be smooth pavement.
Was back at the dealer today and they went for a ride with me. They seem to think I have something in the drive train
causing this.I am taking the truck back in Monday for them to look at. By the way my rear leaf springs just start making
a groaning noise. The dealer advised me this is a known problem on the Daks and Durangos and there is a TSB to
address this.
