Default Shocks

Well it's been a whole two months since my fuel sending unit debacle and all 4 tire pressure senders going south and knock on wood, nothing else has broken yet. I am looking at shocks and I know I do not have the magnetic ride control but how to I tell if I have the regular or the sport suspension? Would the lack of a ride control switch pretty much be the give away?

Look at the RPO Code sticker inside the glove box door. The codes are listed alphabetically. Look for either "FE1" (base suspension) or "FE3" (Z51 sport suspension; will also see the Z51 code at the end of the list).
