I removed the Z55 air ride shocks in the back and replaced with the Z71 springs and KYB Gas Adjust shocks. I unplugged the battery and removed the fuse for the air ride. I then reconnected the battery...no messages in DIC!
Since the air ride shocks were completely blown the ride now feels much improved! I was a little bummed that the springs make the back ride almost 2" higher than before. Does anyone have experience running with the Z55 springs (I've read they are softer and I can see that they are shorter.) I'm really tempted to put them back in but will that cause problems with carrying a load in the back or towing? I don't currently tow but may some day. Also, a load in the back would likely be the 6 kids and stuff for a vacation (just a few hundred pounds total.)
