Default bouncy ride

My ride is very bouncy, I went over a small bump the other day and almost lost control because the truck would not stop bouncing. I was looking to buying these: http://www.jcwhitney.com/webapp/wcs/...atalogId=10101

what are your thoughts?

I like that it will lift the truck too, unless I read that wrong.

Thanks for your input!

it looks like those shocks are for blazers with 2-3" of lift so idk how they would work on a stock height ride.

I would not recommend using a longer shock unless you are lifted.

I liked the Monroe Reflex shocks I put on the front of my old Bravada. I did not go with them in the back because of the tools I carried with me on a routine basis. I ended up putting Monroe Sensatrak w/ Load Assist (coil over shocks). The ride was very firm which is exactly what I was looking for.
