Rock auto beat all other shock prices I found. Coupon discount on their page here too.

Just searched Rockauto and I don’t see anything in an OEM replacement that compares price wise. The ones I posted above are reman OEM shocks rebranded. The ACDelco units on RA are $240/each. I see an aftermarket for $125 but even then that puts it at $250/pair plus another $200 for the compressor. I don’t want to bypass the autoride and I hear mixed results with the sensors on aftermarket shocks. They are even in a different location. Did I miss something on RA? Link? I need to order something soon.

on rockauto the
ARNOTT AS2708 are $150 each plus a $50 refundable core, lifetime warranty
ARNOTT P2793 compressor is $230, lifetime warranty
so ya the cost is slightly more but It's a onetime cost

Couple more little things I threw at this rig.

Then I bought some floor mats. I have weathertech in my truck but I really liked my Lund- Nifty Catchall mats I had in my Denali. I bought a set for this because I think the carpeted floor mats just look better than some molded plastic looking ones. These still have a raised edge to catch all the snow/water and such. But to my surprise, they don’t have full coverage like they used to. Maybe that’s why they came down some on price.

Sorry to be so late to the party. Nice build thread.

Where did you find the Catch-All rear mat? I can't find one anywhere; not even the Lund website. All I see is the Catch-It, which is different.

I don’t usually go cheap or cut corners when I do shit, so I should have gone that route but I went ahead and ordered the Suncore Industries package. Only bad thing I heard was about customer service from some. I guess I’ll find out. If I only get 2 years out of them I’ll go a different route. But now I’m second guessing myself.

I only paid what I did just because of the warranty and it was still cheaper than going oem with only 1yr, although rockauto does give some ac delco stuff 2yrs and sometimes lifetime depending on the part, I bought the front oem shock portion from rockauto and I think they said those had a lifetime warranty they were only $155 each, dealer wanted $480 each and $800+ for a complete strut

Thanks for checking it out. It’s kinda strange how it went down. I bought the front mats and the rear on the same day.



The fronts fit great and the second row was just what I wanted also. But the pics show the 3rd row way different than what I got.


That thing doesn’t fit anywhere. Nowhere in the description did it say base model or ESV. So I went on their website and that’s where I found the fitment.


I didn’t want to send it back, I needed the protection because it was crappy outside and my wife nanny’s my friends 2 kids and they were climbing in and out. So I put some welcome mats in the 3rd row until I could find something else.

I came across this and figured, it’s gotta fit. Looks like what I need and I liked how it goes under and in between the second row seats.


It showed up and no way. It’s for an ESV also. The hump in the floor is different and I couldn’t make it work. Had to send it back. I’m still at a loss for 3rd row coverage. I’m not swapping them out to weathertech even though they are made 10 miles from me. I like the plush look of the Catch-All mats. So if you find any, please let me know.

the ones you ordered should be good a long time, just as long as the originals you would think anyway.

That explains it. I didn't realize 2nd and 3rd row came as one item. I was just looking for 2nd row only. Thanks for the link.

I dont use my 3rd row seats at all. I removed them and use a Husky rubber liner back there. It's one piece, stretching from the rear of the 2nd row bench to the hatch.

The Lund website shows a carpeted liner for the back:

They have another with cutouts for the third row seat attachments. But I didn't see a black one.
