Bouncy ride after 2" lift on 2000 Expy

[ez2bgman]

Hey guys. I'm still new to this forum and only have a few posts. I picked up my 2000 Expy in early Sep. and have been reading as much as possible here and other forums.

After reading all the informative posts, I converted the rear air suspension when I started having problems. After the conversion, the ride was great.

Last weekend I installed 2" coil spring spacers front and rear and replaced both upper control arms up front. Now the ride is somewhat bouncy over sharp bumps/pot holes. Is this normal after a small lift? It feels as if the factory length shocks are at there extension limits. Should I look for longer shocks? If I need longer shocks, what is the best way to determine the correct length to get?

Sorry for all the questions, but I have been having a hard time finding the info I need. Thanks in advance for your help.

did you have an alignment done?? the camber being out on the front can make a ride rough and sharp... also if your shocks are worn i would replace them with some good shocks... you can find some for the extra 2" from ZONE and RANCHO
