Thanks man…!
Depends on what you do – mostly driving around town, no lift, yes – I would
recommend these. Do a lot of offroading (more than 50%) and lifted? No,
you’d better off with something like KYB MonoMax!
I noticed the driver’s side is a tad busy with many wires and “stuff” a bit
harder to get to, but, still the same principles apply. You also helped me
with deciding which shocks to get too. If you have any input on shocks,
that would be helpful too. It seems like it’s either 25-30 per shock or 80+
per…. are you still happy with the ones you installed? ( I have a 2005
Avalanche as well)
Should be!
THANK YOU! This video was exactly what I needed to find. I am now ready to
get it done! Thank you very much. +1
I’m glad to hear that you found the video useful! That’s the biggest
enjoyment I get out of these, helping other out 🙂
Would you recommend using the same shocks for a Z71? Or are there others
you would use for that particular setup?
Yes, I’ll be doing the rears after payday! I’m a big believer in either get
the best, or get the best for your money. The ProGuards have been
fantastic. I’m coming up on 30 days with them, when I intend to replace the
rears, and give my thoughts on the ProGuard shocks.
285/75/16 Nitto Terra Grapplers, no trimming!
Are you using a 285/75/r16 mudd tires? Do they fit in your avalanche
without lift kit or triming?, I’ve been thinking to buy a BFG’s 285/75/17
for my 2004 z71 do you think they will fit without a lift kit?
Thanks sir. I’ve been looking for these shocks and Rock Auto has them for
less than 10 dollars, problem is, they only had 1 in stock… 🙁 Imay buy
the KYB GR2, they are 30 each on Rock auto and Amazon. They should be a tad
more durable and still ride well, yes?
