Front Shocks for 07 3500 GMC DRW DIESEL
Just got 07 GMC 3500HD Diesel TV. Front shocks need to be replaced. Looking for input on what other owners have used and the results. Like idea of air shocks but no experience with them. Thanks

I had Bilsteins on my '07 SRW Chevy 3500. I liked them. I put KYB MonoMax on my '05 Chevy dually, I like them even better.
I don't know why you would want air shocks on the front. They are normally installed to help level out the rear with a heavy load, this shouldn't be necessary in the front. Even in the rear I think they're a bad idea. Shock mounts are really made to support weight but that's what you're asking them to do with air shocks. Weight should be supported by the springs, frame, and axles. Air bags do this much better than air shocks.
