04 denali, has 104k miles, installed new arnott shocks front and rear a couple months ago...right away i noticed they seemed worse then my 100k shocks...anyway, whenever i go over bumps on the highway it seems like the whole truck shakes and rattles, and makes everything inside the truck do the same...seems like some type of suspension issue or bushings or something. what do you guys have in mind?

How do your Jounce stops look? Check those first.

lol. I said the same thing. They're the rubber/polyurethane, cone shaped "Bump Stops" that sit between your lower control arms and your frame. You can get them both on eBay for under $20. I would say do those first, no matter what. I replaced all of my front end components before I realized that was all I needed (thanks again Alex!). Jounce stops are (hands down) the most bang for your suspension buck!

Good luck with everything. Let me know if I can help further.

the arnott shocks suck!! all they do is change the bag in rear and not even touch the inside. It just sucks becuase people are finding out the hard way. I know the gm parts are more expensive but at least you have a brand new unit.
