Rocks side to side

[JWG34]

I have a 2022 ram 2500 crew cab 6.4 4x4 with a service bed, I do mobile tire work and when I put around 8 tires in the back it starts rocking side to side at around 65-70mph also noticed it has coil springs on the rear, anyone know the best way to stop this side to side rocking?

Is your load well balanced? Side to side? Front to back?

It is very balanced and even the way I stack them. If I put 2 more and one on top between them it rocks like crazy

Airbags

Any affordable recommendations?

 

[Jnrcarson]

I adde the Airlift 5000 to my truck, also added the onboard compressor. Compressor is nice but not a necessity. Airbags alone are quit affordable.

I have a champion air compressor in my truck for my work could I use that? And are they easy enough to do myself?

 

[Jnrcarson]

Absolutely. Obviously you have mechanical abilities so you can do it no problem. Any air compressor works you just mount the valve stems in an accessible but protected location. I would supply each one individually so that there can’t be any air swap between bags which helps with side to side roll a little more.

Thanks man, I’m gonna look into some bags

80psi in the rear tires?

 

[Jnrcarson]

Stock tires ? Not sure. I run 50 psi in my 35” Nittos and 60psi when towing.

I have 75 psi in the stock Firestone’s that came on it

75psi

75psi

That’s close enough, strange problem.

Yeah I thought it was weird, but it does it every time I get any weight in the back like the suspension isn’t very stiff at all

 

[Crusty old shellback]

Lower your tire pressure to around 50 to 55 when you are loaded.
75 is way too much. Look up the tires you have and see what the manufacture actually says to run. I run 45/37 in my 35" BFGs.
I've had the back loaded to the point the rear was sagging and still didnt have any issues and no swaying.
And mines a Power Wagon so even softer suspension.

You need air bags due to the fact the coils are so infar inboard

Our ram with a service bed had the same issue, we have a very consistent load on it so we went with the medium sumo springs and the problem is fixed.

Soft springs.

Hey I happen to have the same problem, I just purchased a 2022 ram 2500 6.4 with the schelzi service body and rack. I work in the pool industry and load rebar constantly and have the same exact issue my truck has to come down to 30mph to stabilize. I have replaced the tires from the cheap factory ones but no luck the spring and shock on its own doesn’t do the job, I’m looking into getting the bump stops replaced. These trucks should definitely not be coming off the lot like this. The swaying is so unsafe at speeds over 40. They should have made these trucks with leaf springs. Idk what they were thinking.
