Jumpy Suspension

[Crlnd132]

Hi friends, i need some help here:
I have a 92 camry LE 4cyl. when i am on a highway with bumps and road separations the ride feels jumpy and i can fell all the bumps.
I have replaced struts (Gabriel Ultra), inner tie rods, end tie rods, sway bar bushings, ball joints and lower arm bearings.
The strut mouts where checked and they are ok.
Please, help, i don't know what else to replace. My ride feels awful
Thanks

Hello, I am not sure what you mean by "jumpy". You also stated that you can feel all the bumps in the road. Personally this is what I prefer. The suspension is a bit stiffer. Ride quality is sacrificed some for better handling. There is nothing worse to me than numb handling. Also did the ride change to this condition after you replaced the struts or was this the case prior to the install? Also your wheel and tire combo can affect road manners. Is the car all over the road or does it track straight? We need more info from you before we can help.

By jumpy i mean that the front end goes up and down when on bumpy roads.
It only happens when i'm on a concrete road when i pass over the separators and doesn't happen on paved roads.
Also, when i do a hard brake the front end lowers and rises (i don't know if that's a normal thing)
I did all those replacements to get rid of the problem but nothing helped. When i bought the car last year the problem was there. My cam has 98.000miles

i would think they are tha struts/shocks, if u entire car is doin that, not too familair wit Gabriel shocks ( ive heard of em but never used ) but i do knoe they are a bit low end so like i said may be ur shocks

The Camry suspension does feel every bump and road joint.

The shocks would have the most control over body movement. Tires can cause poor driving and road feel issues. Have you tried varying the tire pressure?.

If you want a smoother ride, might take a look at the Avalon and Lexus suspensions, they were both based on the Camry. The Gen 1 Avalon should be a Gen 3 Camry in dress.

Could the problem be the springs? i haven't replaced them so i'm thinking maybe that's the problem. i don't think the problem are the struts 'cause i was having the problem with the OEM struts that i replaced.
The last owner added some bushings between the spring and the mount to raise the car's body. I had them removed because i thought that was the problem but nothing happened

The whole car shakes and vibrates when i pass over road joints or on un-even roads

do it right, first time

coilovers + linear springs
