Marty,
My newer half ton had slowly started getting "bouncy". Really, the only place I noticed it was when crossing a VERY rough railroad track at speed. Pulled the shocks off and there was nothing, they were completely gone. If you held the rods up they fell with a thud to the bottom of the stroke. Left them off till I got to the parts store 2 days later and noticed no diffence. New shocks stopped the bounce but no other improvement. The only thing shocks WILL do on heavy vehicles from my experience is tire wear. The more your vehicle bounces the more the tires contact patch changes at extremes, make sense? Hope this helps, Kevin
