Default 2012 Suburban Shocks
I am looking to replace the front shock/spring combo and the rear shocks on my Suburban. I have considered also leveling out the front in the process. Anyone got any recommendations for shocks?

I personally think Bilstein are very good. They even smoothed out the bumps quite a lot on my 3/4 ton pickup (wife was complaining about the bumpy ride).

Bilstein 4600s have been great for me. And I'm hesitant to change the height of the front end, since it'll have a negative impact on the CV angles.

I personally have had better luck with Monroe shocks than Bilstein. They are also a better value for the money.
