RichC Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 My Intimidator is due for shocks. Does anyone know if the length is the same as a regular 1500 or awd SS? I plan to buy some generic Monroes for the front, air shocks for the rear . Thanks Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Bag Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 The ISS's come factory with Tenneco shocks. ISS's have a 1" lower stance. I wouldn't replace them with Monroe's. Replace them with a drop shock like my Belltech Street Performance or new Tennecos. http://www.silveradoss.com/forums/topic/74958-differences-between-intimidator-and-the-std-ss/ http://www.tenneco.com/original_equipment/ride_control/products_and_technologies/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blick05SS Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Tenneco actually makes monroe shocks. So they are going to be the same thing as long as the person looking them up gets you the correct number Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f1ss Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 (edited) Im not disagreeing, but Ive spoken with 2 dealership owners (1 is my boss, the other a member) and they said the suspension was the same as every other SS truck....however wikipedia says the Teneco shocks and 2 stage leaf springs create a lower 1" stance like BadAss said and they also have stiffer front stabalizer bar. I would honestly speak to your dealership and get part numbers. Ive brought this question up twice as I would like a 1 inch drop on my truck. If you happen to come across part numbers on the front suspension from the dealer please let me know, Id like to order a set if it is a true lower stance but I dont have VIN for an 06. Good luck!

superredss Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 I just finished installing the belltech street performance shocks on my 07 SSS, definitely a much better ride! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
