GM Truck and SUV Suspension Conversion Kit

Arnott C-3183 is a premium coil spring conversion kit for older long wheelbase GM trucks and SUVs with factory electronic suspension. It replaces the original air/electronic setup with a passive suspension package built to restore ride height, improve handling, and remove dash fault codes through the included Electronic Bypass Module.

Built for GMT800 chassis applications, this Arnott NEW line kit combines front and rear monotube sport shock absorbers with rear coil springs made from US steel. The components are custom-valved to work together for stable road control and a more comfortable ride in daily driving.

  • Passive suspension design for older GM long wheelbase trucks and SUVs
  • Front and rear monotube sport shock absorbers custom-valved for handling and stability

Detailed Description

Arnott C-3183 is engineered for owners replacing problematic GM electronic suspension on long wheelbase GMT800 vehicles. The kit is designed to return factory ride height while converting the vehicle to a simpler passive suspension layout. It is a direct solution for drivers who want to move away from electronic suspension faults without sacrificing everyday ride quality.

This kit is especially relevant for Cadillac Escalade ESV, Cadillac Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche 1500, Chevrolet Suburban 1500, and GMC Yukon XL 1500 applications. Arnott C-3183 uses monotube shock absorbers and tuned rear coil springs to support controlled handling, consistent damping, and a comfortable ride across front and rear suspension positions.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

  • Electronic suspension fault codes on the dash panel
  • Worn or failing factory electronic suspension components
  • Uneven ride height caused by aging suspension parts
  • Loose, unstable handling from degraded shocks and springs
  • Harsh or inconsistent ride quality on long wheelbase GM SUVs and trucks

Installation Notes and Tips

Compatible With 2003-2006 Cadillac Escalade ESV, front and rear; 2002-2006 Cadillac Escalade EXT, front and rear; 2002-2006 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500, front and rear; 2000-2006 Chevrolet Suburban 1500, front and rear; and 2000-2006 GMC Yukon XL 1500, front and rear. Verify GMT800 chassis and long wheelbase configuration before ordering.

Use the included Electronic Bypass Module to address suspension warning messages after converting from the original electronic system. Professional installation is recommended so the shocks, rear coil springs, and bypass module are set up correctly for the vehicle.

Quality Assurance

Arnott’s NEW product line focuses on replacement suspension components engineered for specific vehicle applications. C-3183 is built as a standard replacement conversion kit for GM trucks and SUVs that need a passive suspension solution with matched damping and spring rates.
