So I have replaced a tie rod end,pitman arm AND idler arm on my suburban and its MUCH better but obviously it needs the shocks replaced and I have known that since I got it but not a clue what to get. I was just gonna go with the cheapest ones for now and get better ones later on. Anyone got some info on what to get? Was thinking about these

If these are just plain shocks and not struts.
Sears runs an ad every few months.
Shocks installed - no charge.
I got this deal on my wagon. $99.99 installed. Pair.
They are Monroe standard shocks.
Similar to factory OEM shocks.
Works fine if that is all you want.


But beware of Sears. They will tell you that you need an alignment. You have to ignore anything else if you do know that you don't need anything else done to vehicle.
Sears has had multiple class action lawsuits - for replacing parts not needed. Sears lost them all in court.

I got a Sears here. I wonder if they are running one now? That's a good deal. I do need an alignment haven't gotten one since I got all this work done in the past week.
