Not sure what I have in there...

[AmunRoo]

I've recently replaced my rear shocks and now I need to work on the front. I'm not sure what's in there now but I took a picture and it does have a resistor connected. So I'm assuming I don't have to run air shocks in the front now? But if I can get some opinions, it would help tremendously. Pics should be posted below, if I did it correctly LOL
Hopefully I don't have to buy though $500-$600 per shock set.

There's always, any and I'll help is greatly appreciated.

The correct struts are located by code on your RPO sheet in the glove box. Look for the 6XX And 7XX codes then plug your VIN in here:

You have a 16 year old car now, my advice is replace everything with new OE parts. I'm not in favor of ready made struts as they are not custom to your vehicle nor do they last as long or ride as nice as they could. Others do not share this view and like them on their cars.

I agree with installing OEM. From the pics, it looks like the resistor is already installed to bypass the service suspension light meaning it HAD electronic shocks at one time.

I've had many Denali trucks and never had an issue with the electrical portion of the struts, just the ride quality getting crappy with miles (160k). My most recent endeavor was to buy take off 2019 tahoe shocks from an auto recycler. They had 40K on them and I got the matched pair for $375. I installed these on my 2008 Denali with 165k on the originals.

The parts listing will say only 2015-19, but don't let that fool you. They have the same mounting from 2007-20. I just looked at the codes they had listed and made my best choice. I've put over 5k on these now, much of it on mountain trails without any issues. They ride great. Took 30 minutes to install, but I did have to buy resistors to turn of the suspension light.

Just my $0.02

It's a cheaper way to get OEM quality parts.

Go with OEM parts and regain your electronic suspension control system. The ride quality is worth it.
