What Rob said...I still dialing in my tire pressures....started rock hard, then too soft......I'm close to dialing it in....I'm used to fussy pressures with my motorcycle, but didn't realize 35" tires were so finicky too lol

I'm really at a loss of what to say. You changed springs and shocks. All else staying equal, the springs didn't change overnight. That leaves the shocks, but I'd bet it's more just in your head.
