T1 Suspension SCAM
Why is GM selling these kits for non MRSC Z51's when the shocks are the same part number as the stock Z51 non MRSC?
This original kit came with shocks with following part numbers: Front 22873513 Rear 22873509. Both of these parts are marked as discontinued(!) When you check with dealers, they tell you that 23202880 and 23202881 are replacement parts. However these parts also happen to be the part numbers currently shown by parts catalog for Z51 FE3. So in other words, You pay $2800. For shocks that are marketed as different but in reality are NOT! I contacted TrunkMonkeyParts and they told me that the new T1 kits started shipping with those new part numbers!
