1994 2.3l 2WD 5spd supercab 110k on the dash. When I got this truck I upgraded from 14" wheels with 185/70R14 size tires on them to 15" wheels and now I'm running 235/75/15s. I also replaced the shocks with an "economy" set from rockauto. (https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=60219&cc=1137967&jsn=491) The ride quality is awful, especially when hitting potholes on the highway the truck crashes and bangs around. The body mounts are in decent shape so I don't believe thats the culprit. I can easily give the front fender a push and cause the cab to body roll. Is it possible that the new shocks I put on are too weak for the larger tires and wheels? What are some recommendations for a stock height 2WD 1994 with larger wheels and tires?
 
i recently put 33 inch tires on my daily driver silverado and added some gas charged monroe shocks and im very happy with the ride. they were about 50 bucks each at autozone
