Yesterday I drove up a mountain trail to some old gas wells and my front end went to wheel hopping. The trail had a fair amount of small rock, about a #2 size rock(not rockcrawling by no means) and was extremely steep with some rutting. It wheel hopped at very slow speeds and kind of acted like it just didn't want to stay down. This is on a 01 Chevy 2500 on 315s. I'm sure alot of it has to do with the stiffer suspension of a 3/4 ton. Any ideas on getting the frontend planted?
since you have 35's iam guessing you have a lift?? and when it was hopping was it over flexed or on the flatter parts of the hill? might have to do with the lift if your torsion bars are torqued to tight
They tend to do that under those kind of conditions. And when they do, broken CV joints in the front axle shafts are not far behind.
