    Whats the difference in these shocks?

    Rarely if ever. I bought the Tahoe as a secondary vehicle for running around town or driving to my other places. It's more of an errand truck than anything. It might see a load of groceries, or something like some boxes put in the cargo area sometimes, but that's about it. I went ahead and...

    Whats the difference in these shocks?

    Looking at the curb weight of the two vehicles, the Tahoe weighs in at 5,000-5,300 pounds, while the Suburban weighs in at 5,300-6,000 pounds. A lot more difference than I was hoping. I may just return them in that case.

    Whats the difference in these shocks?

    I was just noticing that on the ebay sites, looks like that is correct. I assume it will bolt up, but maybe it will be a stiff ride? There must be some reason they didn't just use the same shock on the Tahoe and Suburban. The suburban does have a bit more overhang out the back, which means...

    Rear shock swap??

    Thanks for the replies. This is the only photo I have of it at the moment, after driving down a dusty road to get to the house. I'll try to get a few more this evening. I think I'll check out a few wrecking yards this Wednesday and see if I can find a replacement shock for the moment while...

    Rear shock swap??

    If they are unaware of what they are and what they are worth, you probably should if you find some. Post them on ebay and make 200 dollars a set. haha

    Rear shock swap??

    Thanks for the reply. I'm not sure if I want to get into replacing springs also, I would probably just lean towards another set of Nivomats if I have to. If someone has a set for sale I would probably be interested, depending on the price. I was considering going and scrounging some junk...

    Rear shock swap??

    Just picked up a very nice '05 Tahoe with 330K miles. (Idk how they got 330K without making a scratch, dent, or seat tear, but they did it :hahano: Rear suspension has the Sachs shocks. Left rear has oil pouring out of it, and if I corner, the back left raises up and the front right dives...
