I have a M2 Freightliner single axle dump truck. The truck has short wheel base. 10' box with spring suspension. The ride on this truck is terrible. It's so bad that when you hit a bump you end up pushing the fuel pedal compounding the problem! I have a 330 Pete and Chev 8500 with the same setup and both those ride smoother. Do you guys think that adding shocks to the rear axle would help? Has anyone tried this before??
What shocks do is absorb rebound, in other words they make your suspension stop moving quicker. IF that is your problem, go for it. Otherwise, they don't make it ride softer.
I take it this is a spring ride truck?
