I'll pop a couple of wheels off next weekend and check part numbers on the shocks and the coils - see where that takes me.

Post some pics of your control arm angles relative to the sills and the ground, I reckon, the angle of these will impact your ride quality. The springs may also be too stiff, however the dampers valving may not be ideal too.

What about the sway bar? Are the bushings on the rear sway bar arms ok? I heard of some guys taking them off and then describing something similar.

I have a 2" old man emu lift in my wg, springs and shocks. Very smooth onroad and offroad. No "bouncing" not too hard not too soft. As mentioned, check the rear sway bar bushes, worn ones can cause issues like you are having.

Your predicament is sounding a lot like mine. Check the upper bushes on the A frame. It's very obvious once you check.

Shocks appear to be correct. This is what is there now:

Bilstein # 24-185622 Front Shocks
Bilstein # 33-236957 Rear Shocks

Front Coils are black while the rears are Yellow. Only part number I could see on the rears looked like 66EB2 O/S.
