Not sure but I would think the torsion is too stiff or the shocks are no good. That is the job of the shocks to eliminate the recoil, both up and down. |

Your shocks are shot or not strong enough. |

Replacing inefficent shocks with inefficient shocks will not solve the problem. Todays auto parts store clerks no very little about auto parts in general. Relying on them to make the right decisions is like relying our current Goverment to do the same! |

Yes, generally only high pressure gas monotubes with fairly big piston rods expand on their own. It's a damper, not a spring! |

YOU NEED TO GET SOME GOOD OFF ROAD SHOCKS. LIKE RANCHO OR PROCOMP THEY ARE PRETTY AFFORDABLE |

I use to run shocks off a 91 ford ranger 4x4 rear. Big shocks and $20 at autozone. |
