shocks 2014 silverado rear suspension

[silveradosid]

i have a 2014 silverado that when the rear of the truck hit bumps it always jumps the rear of the truck to the left. i have 87k miles on the truck so i figured the rear shocks were done. after reading many post i decided to put bilstein 5100's on the truck i had a lower spacer on the front to lift the truck 1.5 inches. so i set the fronts on the 3rd setting which is 1.26 inches and then installed the rears withe boot down. i drive a section of road that has had some pot holes filled in that make the truck jump to the left after installing the new shocks i drove this section of road again and the rear of the truck will still jump to the left. i checked the ubolts and they are tight. what else could be making the truck do this if i hit a series of bumps it get dangerous any help appreciated

Check the leaf springs?

Could be that the contour of the road in that stretch   just  makes your truck jump in that direction.  Probably nothing wrong with your truck.  Ive   slid sidways many times in my truck.

Yes, slow down. Newtons Law after-all.

Bilsteins are light years better than junk OEM Tenneco Ranchos, but they are not coi-lovers.

Leaf sprung trucks are still leaf sprung trucks.

the truck will still jump side ways on some bumps even at 25 mph this has only started in the last few months

What kind of tires and what PSI are you running?
