I have a former Autoride 2001 Suburban that I converted to a passive air system using a Monroe 90012 set up. Will these springs work in that set up?

Yes. It will sit significantly higher than stock. Search online for the procedure on how to disconnect the auto ride system so you don't get a code. I had to add new keys to compensate for the rear height.

in my 2004 Suburban LT it they work better than the originals from GM. Get new shocks also and you will be very happy with your car and you save a log of money. You may also better load your car now. I did more than 10000 mls now and i am more happy than the car was new. I drive the car in Mexico and we load rhe car very often. Cheers Sven

They will only work if they are NOT in a can. (I tried) The springs are not strong enough to put in a can. I don't know about passing inspection.

Amazon sold my springs as a pair and I've never seen them sold any other way so I'd say yes. I've since upgraded to the heavier series, however. They are holding up well but the lighter series sagged after a few months of occasional hauling. I don't recommend running them anywhere near their rated capacity.

It should work on any automotive strut as the basic design is pretty much the same on all vehicles with struts. It simply compresses the spring from each side and holds the spring so you can unbolt the top of the strut plate to swap the springs to a new strut. If you aren't comfortable with this, there are some companies that have complete strut replacements including springs all pre-assembled so its similar to swapping out a shock absorber. Monroe has some depending on the vehicle.

Please do not stretch the springs. They are factory set to a high tolerance. you will cause the device to work incorrectly and likely fail the annual inspection.

It worked on a 2001 suburban with automatic headlights and it shouldn't be much different so it should be compatible

It should work fine, and there is an adapter cable that makes it even simpler. See the following install video http://www.etrailer.com/Brake-Controller/Tekonsha/90885.html

I installed these in combination with rear air bags so my suburban didn't squat at all. The shocks alone won't prevent squatting but definitely will firm up the ride and prevent body roll. Good luck

No reason they wont work. You also need the mounting kit. This part number is for the plastic guards ONLY.

Was a complete set. Per Monroe tech, 171680 is the wrong strut for my car. S/B 271680. Spring is different.Verify model type at monroe.com before ordering.

They worked on my 2008 suburban, and easy to install. Look at which way your olds are installed before removing old. Also the lift gate will be extremely heavy once you remove so have a helper to hold up the gate.

I kind of think that you will need to remove the airbags in order to mount these helper springs, as they sit on top of the existing springs. Sort of where the airbag sits.

Yes. They work fine. Need to put a little extra air in shocks if you use the lowest setting.

I would call the manufacturer to be sure. Here is a link showing a fellow installing airbags suspension over helper springs.

I would think your box springs would be fine. We used our existing box springs we had & they worked perfectly.

Check for an Application specific part on the Monroe website. If you are using these to load level I would advise against it. You need to find an air bag setup for that.

I am sorry but I really don't know if they will work for you or not because I bought them for my 90 mercedes 560 sel and they did not work for me because the springs were too big for it. I think these spacers work better for small honda's and toyota's or vehicles with light suspension
