Shock absorbers KYB or FOX
Fox 2.0s on my wife’s suburban, very happy with them.
The Gas-A-just model is pretty stiff, go with the excel g’s. They have a much smoother ride.
I put Sachs in all the Mk1 front ends that I work on, including my own. For the rear, I use KYB Gas Adjust, because I haul and tow with mine, and I want the shocks to be stiff.
I actually just got down putting on some rear KYB shocks for my ole gurl.
I bought KYB shocks few years ago on Amazon for my C1500. Way cheaper compared to local parts store.
I would go with KYB, best for the price at least
Go with KYB on Rock Auto. They seem to ride like oem, maybe a touch stiffer before break-in.
I bought the shocks. They're good, very happy with them. Setting 1 is basically stock, though was better controlled with what I had. Setting 8 is noticeably firmer - allows much quicker inputs. Currently have them on 3/8 all around and car is balanced - maybe about as firm as an NB RS.
I put KYB's in my 924S and they were fine on Hawai'i's questionable roads.
I initially replaced my front structs and rear shocks with KYB Excel-G parts as they “seemed” to have good ratings and reviews as “good” shocks. The ride quality is now more “rough” and “bouncy” since apparently these shocks/struts are more stiff.
