Shocks ?
Have an Old Body Style '99 Tahoe LS 4WD, have had it almost 10 years, and am needing to replace the shocks. Currently has the original OEM Bilstiens at 177K. Rides decent but not as well as it used to. Family type truckster, no off road use. "May" be trading it off this spring/summer if wife and I can find what we want. Looking at perhaps AC Delco or Monroe and not the Bilstiens ($$) since planning on trading it off at some point. Anyone have a recommendation as to which, AC Delco or Monroe, part numbers are always helpful. Probably get them from Rock Auto since not in a hurry for them.

Re: Shocks ?
I put some napa response shocks on a 93 silverado, I unfortunately had to get rid of... the ride quality was pretty good and the price is very economical. Monroe, I was told made their shocks.

Re: Shocks ?
Thanks for the reply, don't have a NAPA close by. May have to do the Monroes I can get from our local parts house.

Re: Shocks ?
I really like Monroe OESpectrum shocks, I think they are the same as the sens-a-trac because they are the same part number. I have a set on my 03 1500 and my 69 GMC and they run way better than the KYBs I took off even when they were newer.

Re: Shocks ?
I like the sensa tracs. I tried the one above the sensa tracs on 02 suburban few years back and they were too stiff and I changed them out
