I believe they are the same...

The front struts on my wifes denali lasted about 65-70k miles, then one locked up.

The SLT suspension is different than the Denali. Denali should have standard equipped magnetic ride control suspension where as the SLT doesn’t.

What kind of money qas it to repair..

you can look at oem shock and strut prices on rockauto, both are easy to DIY, dealer will rip you a new one for them.

yea, i wanna say to replace with oem type units was roughly $3-400 a piece. From reading up on forums, the dealer charges about $1500-2000 to replace them both.

I didnt go with factory replacements. I went with fox 2.0 units, to the tune of nearly $1000. They are not electronic shocks though, so you have to get sims from a company like xineering. These are the ones I went with...
