Can you replace zw7 shocks on a 2003 Tahoe with standard shocks?

If you replace the manual leveling shocks on the rear with regular shocks you also have to replace the rear coil springs with stiffer ones. Use gm part #15182559 or bilstein part #199021 to replace the coil springs. The coil springs that come with the manual leveling shocks are not stiff enough to use with regular shocks, causing the rear end to droop.


What if your rear end is low and you know that you need new shocksbut you also want to replace the coil springs?

if you go with original equipment you need to replace either shocks or springs or both with factory specifications. shocks are matched to springs by load capacity and rebound force, you see, if you swap out shocks for race shocks they will be a lot more stiff, you can play with shocks a little but the springs must match the shock specs. an example would be say,you replace your factory springs with racing-lowering springs, but stuck with factory shocks, the car would bounce all over the road cause the springs are much stronger than the damping load the shocks are designed to handle

How do you remove and replace rear shocks?

Jack up the rear end and support it. With the weight on the axle you take the nuts loose on each and and replace the shocks. The shocks keep the rear axle from dropping down and letting the springs come out. As long as the axle is off the ground and supported you shouldn't have any problem.
