Do the Silverado’s ZR2 Multimatic DSSV shocks fit the 2023 Tahoe?

Be it the base model or the Z71?

I have a 2023 Z71 with the air-ride shocks and I’ve driven over 25-30k miles on it, the suspensions don't perform as they did new.

No. If you have air ride it wont work up front. The rear is a completely different setup than the truck…you have independent suspension and the trucks have leaf springs…so won't work there either even if it wasnt air ride.

The DSSV shocks do not have anything hooked up to them. I have them installed on my Trailboss and they are a nice upgrade. The fronts might bolt up but the rear would probably not work.

But how would you disable the air ride system if you removed it?

What is not performing right anymore on your Tahoe?

I keep getting a service suspension system warning, first one was literally after the 5k mark and proceeded on and on, i thought to myself why not just swap the shocks after i fell in love with my brothers zr2’s performance on and offroad :D, anyways I’ve spoken to the dealer about the problem but they called it a manufacturers defect without compensation. Hence my idea which is now a bust.

Also, dont those shocks have electronics routed to them? Which your vehicle surely wouldnt have.
the air ride has electronics hooked up, the dssv dont but then again i didnt think it through at first, had to ask to tho.
