Well i finally blew a shock at 89k on the originals My question is is it pretty easy to do on these trucks, ive done them on my Firebird and it wasnt too bad. Also what shocks do you guys recommend for me to get.


Thanks Bo.

Shocks are very easy to replace. The rears are very easy. On the front you have to take the tires off.

My DD 2wd HB has 140K with the original shocks. I recommend ranchro 9X's if you can afford them. The select ability is awesome. Bilstein have the best ride.

Cheapes place to buy ranchro shocks is here. If you know your part number.

If your looking for something more factory, KYB make good replacement shocks.

Thanks Lordbiotre, Your always the first one to help me My shocks are so bad they are disagrating from the rust lol. Im going to go with the factory style more because im alittle low on the green.

Ive been doing research and came up with monroe's or gabrials($15-25). I want to get kyb's but they are $45 a piece. Are the monroe's or gabriels pretty good?

I would take the Monroe's. I don't recognize gabriels. Never seen or heard of the name.
