ECE static lowered, soft ride

Put ECE's 3.5/5 inch drop kit and disc brake conversion on my 1968 C-10 long box. Stance is great! Drove it around with the 235/75 15's on all 4 corners and the front dives and won't settle out after bumps in the road. Sometimes it is bad enough to get the tires to rub the inner fender wells which will pucker you up in a hurry!!

It came with the lowered KYB shocks and is softer than I'd prefer. Did I set something up wrong? I'm not super familiar with lowering vehicles, but this one was straight forward and I had a friend who'd used ECE kits in the past help me out. Running a smallblock and a 700r4, so it's not that heavy. What gives?

Good judgment comes from experience, and experience, well......that comes from bad judgment.


1968 Chevy C-10 "Longshot": Bought used from my Uncle George in 1994 and proceeding to beat the hell out of it for 4 years. Sold it. Bought it back, dumped an ungodly amount of money into it since then.
