Shocks X4

[Samuraj]

for sure my hoe needs better shocks , I know bilstein make one for rear, how about front ?
How about different brand ?
Like to stay in same height

 

[domoarigato]

Height isnt determined by shocks, the springs do. As long as the travel distance of the shocks is the same as factory you can go with any brand.

 

[Samuraj]

Any recommendations?
PPV level , and possible stock 20" wheels
Originally I was planning on 17" wheels , but .... not sure anymore

 

[Samuraj]

Confused..

$88.44 20765171 / Strut, LEFT
2WD, DELCO# 540-460

$88.44 19300066 / Strut, LEFT
2WD, DELCO# 580-364

$261.68 19300066 / Strut, RIGHT
2WD, DELCO# 580-364

 

[Samuraj]

Maybe better view

 

[domoarigato]

I believe the DELCO# 540-460 is for non-autoride tahoes (which ppv's are I believe). Autoride was only found in LTZ's. Dont quote me, but it makes sense as to why the other struts are so expensive.

I used my s/n and ...

 

[Samuraj]

Come on guys ....
My butt hurts on Chicago roads

 

[Samuraj]

Any one ...

 

[Samuraj]

Front struts , rear schocks for our Tahoe?

 

[Samuraj]

I'm calling police
Fleet maintenance department where my Tahoe was serviced , maybe they know ....

 

[Samuraj]

I found the struts , shocks ... on my own , so you guys can go and .....
Ask me how I did it

 

[adventurenali92]

Those part numbers starting with 193 are the auto ride shocks I believe. I could be wrong but I just ordered new shocks for my 2006 Denali and the auto ride part numbers started with 193 as well. You should be looking for the 207 designations.

 

[Samuraj]

20765177 front
25871234 rear
Stock height ..... no info about Police package , my dealers , has no clue ...

 

[THEGREG]

I'd suggest searching Rockauto.com They will show which package applies to which strut.... and if your asking, yes, Struts up front (spring over strut), and shock in the rear (independent shock w/ leaf springs).

As far as your sore butt.... its the spring/shackle set up on the PPV trucks, they aren't soft, they are meant for handling.

Have set from belltech sitting in the garage ....
Thanx tho

 

[992dr]

Going to gmparts with vin will get you exact replacements but, you have to use your vin. Get part numbers and go from there.

I got Bell Techs adjustable struts. For two reasons 1.) firm ride 2.) to lower it

Our Tahoe's don't have shackles. We have parallel 4 link with pan hard bars and coil springs.

To relieve yourself from sore butt syndrome, start with the free travel mod.

 

[Samuraj]

Installed belltech today , what a difference !

 

[992dr]

How's the ride compared to factory?

 

[Samuraj]

Cannot really say, my old ones are garbage , truck was riding all over the road ..
