Shock replacement on a 2007 Z-71 Tahoe

[rescueu2]

My Z-71's ride is getting rougher, I am thinking about putting new shocks on, called the local shop and they wanted 700.00 for Monroe shocks and labor. I have read on here that Bilsteins are the way to go! I'm thinking about installing them myself, the rears I can do for sure but no sure on the fronts. Does anyone have some instructions for a front shock install that they wouldn't mind sharing. Thanks in advance!!

Follow the steps here that show how to remove the STRUT. Ignore the rest of it. Also the reason why nobody answered you is the Techs ection is not for question, its for "how to" tips and install guides.

I just bought some Rancho RS5000 for my '07 z71, love 'em! (about $400 total)

I just installed Bilsteins on my 07 and it was very easy for a do it your self project. The fronts are a pain as you have to get a strut compressor to keep the spring compressed while you swap out the shock. I paid a little over $300 for the HD model.
