Default Joe Gibbs Shocks 04 Tahoe

I have an 04 Tahoe, Joe Gibbs with blower, etc. 32K miles and having tires cup a bit on front end. Shop tells me to replace shocks. What the heck did those come with and what do you gurus suggest for replacements all the way around?

Bilstein HD's were too firm for my taste, so I went with Edelbrock IAS and have really enjoyed them. Put a set on my mom's 02 Tahoe as well and she loves them too. Best blend of high performance but daily driveable IMHO.

Thanks, there are Bilsteins on the truck, just not sure of the specs, etc.

If they came stock, they are likely not the HD's and are probably pretty squishy. Might have a part # on the side of them that you could google.

I'll have to crawl under and look. Edelbrock doesn't make the IAS anymore according to Summit

Ground Control did the package and I ordered their shocks thru Summit.

Thanks for the help.
