Ride quality even worse than expected. Advice welcome.
I've got .99 TB's, OEM 6 leaf springs in the back, Bilstein RCD's all around and 245/45R17 and only one real drive so far, but I love how it feels. At least as good as my '15 RT STP.
Not an apples to apples, I know.
Two things I would look at:
1. @72bluNblu has recommended puck style LCA bumpers. Might be for this very reason.
2. Make sure the LCA pivot pin wasn't torqued before the weight of the vehicle was on them. I kind of doubt it is an issue if you have poly bushings, but something to look at.
For what it's worth, I know I am just touching the bumper to the frame, with the stock bumper. If you are running much lower than I am (hard to tell), then you are probably compressing the bumpers and don't have any travel.
