Auto ride (Z55) suspension. Options for replacement shocks??

[need-for-speed]

For our 2008 Tahoe LTZ with 113K miles. We haven't had any problems with ours other than the shocks are wore out. Bouncy / mushy ride. From what I've read, If I want to retain the OEM function, I have to buy shocks from GM and they are extremely pricey.

 

I see one place sells an aftermarket conversion that includes just a regular shock and a plug to fool the computer so it won't throw a code (fronts) and the rear replacements function the same (air shock) but I believe the rears also come with a plug to fool the computer.

 

What have you guys done ?

Not on a truck but on a 2000 park Avenue I did the same.

 

I replaced the factory air ride with conversion shocks and disabled the associated air ride hardware. It worked great but, it was a 300,000 mile, fairly worthless car.

 

Your Tahoe is pretty young still...
