Correct...you are probably either riding on the bumpstops, your shocks are worn/old, or the stock shocks (?) aren't stiff enough to handle a stiffer spring...
of course you could have screwed up the install too

You didn't install the OEM shock dust covers did you? If you did, it will make it feel like you're riding on solid suspension, and would probably make it pretty bouncy.

I'm pretty sure i didn't install it wrong....I think it's the old shock....but anything is possible...i'll be taking it out tomorrow to see what's going on...
Would the shock dust cover make a difference?

Re: (itr206)
i'd recommend KYB AGX's instead of the blues. its just my suggestion, i heard many good things about KYB, and i've heard a few complaints about tokicos. plus you'll have the adjustable dampening in the AGX for not much more than Blues.
