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.

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.
