I believe the 3/4 ton is a little more bouncy.

It's hard to tell though.

The dealer said there's no difference, and when I went over the same bumps with the one ton it did bounce for sure.

Any opinions out there?

 

I thought the only difference was the 1 T had an over load spring.

 

Don't forget those little yellow lights . . .

Hey I got them little yaller lights on my 2500. That way I don't feel so small around the duallies.

 

Besides the overload springs in the rear, I thought the front end had thicker coil springs?????

 

My guess is the tire pressures were different or the power of suggestion made the bumps feel different.

Did they both have the same bed length? The long bed supposedly rides better.

 

Yep Tim they both had short beds.

I think if there's a difference it's very slight.

I drove the 1 ton twice and the 3/4 ton once inbetween. The second ride in the 1 ton took me over the same bumps and it bounced pretty good itself, so I think they're pretty much the same.

Like you said, the power of suggestion.

Now that you mention it I will lower the tire pressure just to test it out.

Thanks!

 

You might want to read your tire pamplet or maybe the dodge book, anyway on the 1 ton it says for a no load the frount is 45 psi and the back is 40 psi I think thats right, any way thats what I run mine at when theres no load and the ride is a lot softer my 02
