‘22 Diesel 2500 CC SB (68rfe)…
I noticed a significant worsening of the ride after changing to aftermarket wheels and tires. I know this has been well documented as a suspension issue. But thing is, it was still there before, just not as bad.
Now after 2000 miles with the new setup, I have noticed that the rough ride is worst at 1000-1200 rpm and particularly in the OD gears. Still does it in 4th, but not as bad and not all in the lower gears. It also smooths out significantly when you take your foot off the accelerator.
Is it possible that the truck is lugging? Is it even possible that a truck that tows 18k# could struggle with the increased unsprung weight (295/70/r20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers, not running 40’s or any such nonsense)? Is it a break in issue?
LMK if anyone has some insight. Thanks.
