? on Improving the ride

I have 22"wheels on my ride with 2.5" shackles in rear for leveling. I have been thinking about a more comftorable ride. Its very stiff right now which I am assuming is due to the wheels. Are there any kind of shocks or other suspension ideas that would make the ride more comftorable.

I have the stock 20's roush wheels and with the stock roush suspension it rides smooth. no complaints here. i believe the whole suspension is $1279. it comes with shocks, springs, very thick front anti-sway bay, shakles, and leaf springs. the rear is drop 4 inches and the front is drop 3"

Check your tire pressure first. When my shop installed my 22's they inflated them to 50psi and they rode pretty rough. I dropped the pressure to 40psi and the ride was improved tremendously.

I concur. I've seen this many-a-time on friend's rides. They bring 'em to me to look at thinking something's messed up, when they have 50psi in their tires.
