2002 yukon xl shock options

[mountie]

My '05 Yukon XL RPO codes...... My rear shock...... coil spring label.......
I have the ZW7 " Premium Smooth Ride"..... But not the "self adjusting Sachs "Nivomat" shocks.
The coil spring part number ( You might be lucky and still have the sticker on one of your rear springs)

I do NOT have the "self adjusting shock RPO > G65 code.
So, you just saved a bunch of money..... Just replace your shocks with the OEM standard premium shock.
They perform just fine.
(( I have the Hellwig sway bar.... works together well ))

Ok...codes for yukon #2

Can't read all the "Gxx" codes. Need a complete pic.

I do NOT have the "self adjusting shock RPO > G69 code.

G69 is NOT the Nivomat shock code, it's for air suspension:



G65 is the code for Nivomats.

G65 is the code for Nivomats.

Opps I miss-wrote..... I edited my post....
I guess my 'G80' is my premium shocks, not adjusting...
His RPO codes look like mine in that subject. ( The hidden code to left, seems , is like me, " GU6 " ( rear axle )

G80 is your rear axle. GU6 is the ratio (3.42:1).

You might want to stop quoting specific codes if they're just guesses. It just adds confusion.

You are correct..... I'll shut up.... But the ZW7 options are confusing to owners.

Did GM make the RPO codes confusing on purpose??

I didnt realize my codes were unreadable. When i saw zw7, i figured it was nivomat. Now im confused. I can post another photo of the codes later. So....do yall think they are or arent nivomats? Certainly not air shocks. I stood on the rear bumper and tried to bounce the vehicle. Its really stiff. But last time i towed, it bounces a lot under load.

Take a photo of your shocks...... 1st photo are my new ZW7 'Premium Smooth Ride' ... standard factory shocks. ( regular width ). About $50.00..
2nd photo are Sachs / 'Nivomat' .. ZW7 , ' Premium Smooth Ride' 'self leveling shocks' ( self-contained / no air compressor ) , a larger width. About $400.00 (+ - )
Then there is a premium ZW7, leveling shock, with an air compressor fitting on the shock. ( I don't have a photo of that)
( My info may not be perfect, but just to give you an idea )

FLESS IS WATCHING ME...... He's better at this stuff, than, me....

If you go to the dealer, and do a parts search for your ZW7, and using your VIN #, THIS WILL CONFUSE YOU EVEN MORE.... The drawing, AT THE DEALER, is for my ZW7 premium smooth ride / STANDARD shock.....( #540-433 ) But for some silly reason, the drawing, AT THE DEALER'S PARTS COMPUTER, shows an air fitting on the shock, even though, THAT shock does not have an air fitting.....
