    On my rig I seem to bottom out on bumpy and pot hole roads, the steering wheel also jerks when I go over these bumps and potholes even at a slow speed.

    Is this a shocks issue or what?

    Thanks guys.

    hard to say, without knowing the size of the bumps your hitting.

    When parked push down on each side of the front. Its should go down with the push and bounce up then stop. If it bounces a few times then shock is going out.
