yeah, it actually feel bumpy and tend to bounce from side to side on bump, Im not sure ill get used to it, but not feeling putting 1500 into suspension as ive already put alots of stuff to make this truck look better, id need some expert to chime in to suggest what exactly would be best bang for the bucks with maybe retaining a little drop too.

I drive a lot with my toddlers in the back and this is one of the reasons to soften my susp,
so far here what I found and my math
Scrap Yard prices
Front strut assembly 2018 Tahoe LS $135 each
Rear Coil LW7 code $35 each
Rear shocks $90 each

New Bilstein shocks 5100 around $90 rear each and front around $120 just for shocks so need to add coil springs
I don't understand why scrap yard rear shocks almost the same price as new Bilstein

I'm a DIY guy, looks for me as an easy job, so labour - Free :)
I'm pretty sure I can sell my suspension, lots of people like to displace their kidneys. So I can get some money back

Do you have Z56 suspension or ZW7? Mine is Z56, too rough...

Where can I locate which suspension I have? I checked my window sticker and ran my vin on a website but didn’t see that info. Now I’m curious.
