Test the shocks -- press down sharply on a corner and see if it bounces when it comes back up. If the movement neutralizes immediately, that corner is good. Repeat at all corners.
Check the condition of your springs, they are what absorb the initial shock while the absorbers smooth out the aftereffects. What size are your tires? |
