Question:
I have a 2004 EXT that has a compressor and air shocks that were factory equipped. The shocksair bags are both split and the compressor doesnt work. I want to replace the shocks with air shocks because I do tow once in a while a horse trailer. I want to know if there is a good after market shock that is heavy duty and I dont need the compressor that lifts automatically. I can manually lift these.

I may have a solution that will work for you, however, we do not offer replacement air shocks for your 2004 Cadillac Escalade EXT at this time. We do offer coil spring air bag inserts like the AirLift 1000 Air Helper Springs, # AL60769. These air bags fit in the rear coil springs and can be manually inflated for additional support.
Another option would be a bump stop replacement like the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System, # TGMRG25C, that you referenced. These are rubber springs that replace the factory bump stop mounted on the underside of the frame at the axle. The Timbren kit that you referenced fits 4WD models only. If your Escalade is a 2WD model, then you will want to look at part # TGMRYS4.
