Is there any other type of suspension work done? I can spec you out a set of shocks if you would like. Check out the link below and let me know what you think.

I have 70 3/4 ton Suburban. Stock suspension. Have a new set of Bilstein shocks ready to install when weather cooperates. Rear part number 24-002486 and front 24-192941. Will let you know how they ride in a couple weeks.

John,

Those look good...suspension is 100% stock. Any recommendation would be greatly appreciated. Ill have to crawl under and take a look this afternoon to see what I need on each end as far as mounting goes. I believe its eyelet both front and rear but Ill double check.

Sounds great!
If the truck is still at factory ride height, I may be able to cross reference the factory part numbers and find something compatible in our product line. I will look into it and see what I can come up with.
