    For the most part my problem has been solved. Ride in the rear got a little better since I replaced my drive tires, and got even better when I added a headache rack and put all my tools and whatnot from under my bunk into the headache rack. Taking the load off the bunk air ride softened the airbags and I had 1 tire with a little cupping that must have been bouncing just enough to throw off the ride height while driving or something.

    Kind of irritating that I spent over 10 grand trying to get this problem figured out, and in the end tires and emptying out the bunk and side steps into a headache rack did it.

    Unless you sell that truck,none off that 10 grand is waisted.
    You just made a investment in the long term future off your truck.
    Preventive maintenance.;)
