Putting these 2.0” Fox shocks in the back of the Mrs Pronstar’s suburban. The guys at CJC hooked my up as usual...love those guys.

I recently put new yellow Bilsteins on it, front and rear. But there’s a lack of rebound damping that we aren’t happy with.

When the wife asks “why is the back so bouncy?” I know that it’s not just me being picky.

Hopefully these settle it down back there. I’ll probably upgrade the front with matching coilovers if we’re happy with how the rear turns out.

It’s just so weird that the front is composed, and the rear is a mess.

Side note:
I have some rear yellow Bilsteins for sale, just 5k miles on them [emoji4]

It’s bone stock, not much to see [emoji52]


The shocks did the trick. I was worried that there would be an issue with the fronts still being Bilsteins, but it’s nicely balanced.

I’ll prolly put matching coilovers on at some point, level it out with wheels/tires and retractable running boards, but we’re happy with it as-is.

And it gets crazy good mileage, I don’t want to kill that...

Did the Fox’s to my 2500, was blown away at the actual difference on ride with them.
