Need new shocks - best recommendations

[UmmScott]

Hey everyone. Happy new year.

We are wanting to replace the shocks on our 00 yukon. Ride is getting kinda bouncy. Whatever is on it now is what the previous owner put on. They are not OE.
I'm currently running 275/65R18s on her. Nothing else as far as mods for the most part.

We take it on family road trips with very light off roading.

So... what would be the best shocks for us?

Thanks [emoji106][emoji106]

Personally, I don't think you can go wrong with either KYB or Bilstein shocks. Other members will chime in.

Just don't waste your money on KYB Excels, waste of money imo.

Yea, the ones I bolted on are the Mono Tube ones, called MonoMax. I could feel the difference immediately.

If I didn’t have AutoRide & AutoLevel, I’d go with Bilstein’s myself. Put them on the rear of my truck and have been very happy with them. Need to do the fronts soon.

Bilsteins get my vote, truck is very firm

Thanks guys. Can someone elaborate a bit on all the options I'm seeing? Specifically on the Rockauto website.
Example: premium ride, smooth ride, etc.
Autoride and electronic suspension I do not have on my truck

What do those mean exactly? How can I tell what my truck came with?

Post a picture of your RPO sticker in your glove box. Then we can see what your vehicle came with from the factory at least.

Yea, sorry I did not post the maker, KYB.
