Loaded up with 120lbs of sand ballast over the single wheel. Bumped the air pressure in the air bag spring up to 50psi to account fer the extra load.

The smaller bumps in the road seems to have less of an impact on the road vibrations felt through the truck. Can't say it helps on speed bumps though...
