New Shocks and Shoes

[Pez Man LTX]

Recently picked up a 2015 Tahoe LTX with 82K, and noticed it rode like a tricycle. After finding this site, learned of the issues with the Magnaride suspension. Driving this thing was painful. The tires needed to be replaced, so opted for a set of Michelins. Ride really didn't improve, so i went under the the truck and took a pic of the shock part #s, which came back to some cheap after market shocks. Ordered 4 new GM shocks from Rock Auto for $407 ea. and had them installed. Much, better ride now. Also installed a pedal commander, which improved the performance feel. Pleasure to drive now. Next is to look into the occational click in the steering wheel, which is very intermittent, and only at slow speeds with little wheel movement.

The shocks didn't say Rough Country did they?

No, i looked them up, the part number came back to TRQ shock.

Good choice going back to the OEM suspension, IMO. I had the same situation when I purchased my new-to-me 2007 Yukon XL Denali, and converting back to the OEM suspension was a great improvement.

If you want even further improvement in handling, get yourself a pair of Hellwig sway bars, and completely eliminate any body roll.
