I finally replaced them with brand new ppv suspension. My mechanic told me in order to change to a different one such as LS or LT, there are many other parts that you need to replace. He checked that also with some engineers at GM. Anyways the ride is still harsh specially at the back. Spent about 1500$ Canadian and disappointed at the result.

If you have all thr parts from the other one then make sense to do it. Othewise it gets too costy

Searching for the next sunset...
Why is that? All the mounts should be the same no? Or am I just wrong on this? I guess its hard to find concrete info or if it is just listed as "It wont work" but bolts on and functions fine
Like just about everythin on Amazon. No longer avialable or sold out.
I was able mix and match some civilian parts in my 2013 and get a decent ride quality.
I had a front spring break. It was popping in corners like a ball joint was bad, so I took it over to pep boys' and had them do an inspection. They found the bad spring and I had them swap the front and rear shocks/struts and springs for civilian model ones and it it went pretty well. Ran me a little over $1600 with a full alignment. I could have done most of the work myself for quite a bit less, but they did it same day and I was a couple hundred miles from home. My understanding is the ppv also has different sway bars, and potentially knuckles, but they didn't cause any issues with the install or the ride quality afterward.
They quoted me $1300 to do the front with ppv suspension and kept the same price for the civilian, 1800 to do the front and rear, then knocked $200 off when I went to cash out. Both quotes included an alignment.
