I read the Toyo tire pressure tables recommended on another thread which indicated with the larger tire the pressure should actually be lower for the same load. So I dropped the pressure down to 30 psig all around and that reduced the bouncing a lot. I'll just watch to see how the tread contact is and see if I need to make any adjustments.
Still had a couple of rebounds going over speed bumps, so new shocks would probably help as well.
