Default Ride Quality

What's everyone thought about upgraded stock shock front and rear to something like this

Also, no rear air, no rear tire (inside or out)

Those are a big improvement over stock shocks. Not sure if you know or not, but Monroe is the same company as Rancho and Monroe makes the OEM shocks for Hummer. Those shocks you posted are much higher quality than the ones that come on the H2.

I have those (all four for an H2) brand new in box and in stock. I will do them for half of what that site shows them listed for. PM me if itnerested.

Great tip - GREAT SHOCKS! Big difference that I am very pleased with! Thank you for the recommendation on those shocks Dobbs tire center charged 103 dollars to install all four - not outrageous IMHO.

I have the Adventure Package on my '06 SUT and it looks to me like the air bags are part of the shocks. I'm guessing these shocks don't work with the air suspension.
