Who has experience in auto-ride/ auto-level suspension conversion to something like the Arnott coil spring and bilstien conversion kits?
My 03 Denali is like a damn bucking bronco on the road and handles like a school bus! it's really pathetic. I am assuming that my shocks a toast as they are originals with 105k on them. I certainly dont want to spend a fortune replacing OEM shocks, and I am intrigued by the bilstien setup as i had bilstein on my Tundra and was impressed my the ride but I digress...
Anyone have experience with a convertion? This thing handles so bad

I just found an OE replacement rear shock that Monroe makes that may be the way to go.... so confused though, 40034 or 40032 ??
still interested in hearing about the coil spring conversion

In process of converting my 03 as well I believe all you have to do is unplug the rtd fuse under the hood. Some say they need relays to fool sensors but my rtd fuse was unplugged for a year never had single light on dash. I have a few reviews on the Monroe's that don't sound that good

On the rear springs im a little perplexed myself but from my research I think becuase we have denalis we have z71 springs so not sure why all kits replace them hopefully some can answer that one.

T-bars on the front and coil springs on the rear. The auto-level is an airbag built on the shock that builds pressure and helps the spring out when you load down the rear of the truck. Going to a non-airbagged shock would simply delete this feature on the truck. The Autoride and Auto-leveling are two completely different systems.
