  • In this video, I show the park amphitheater is necessary to replace the front magna ride shocks on 2014 and newer GM trucks in SUVs. This includes Chevrolet Silverado’s, tiles, suburban, GMC Sierra’s, Yukon’s, and Yukon XL vehicles. As well as Cadillac Escalade this includes Chevrolet Silverado‘s, tires, suburban, GMC sierra‘s, Yukon‘s, and Yukon XL vehicles. As well as Cadillac Escalade’s. Although this is not a difficult job there are a couple key procedures that need to be followed in order to correctly install these and ensure the shock will last for a long time. Below are links to parts and tools that I used in this video as well as some information for swapping over the connector from the old shock to the new shock. Be careful not to damage any wires while removing the old shock absorbers from the shock assembly. Thanks for watching you have any questions or comments feel free to leave something in the comment section. Thank you

    Thank you for this video! I have a 2015 suburban with 60K miles and the drivers front shock is leaking oil. I bought OEM shocks for ~$350 each on one of the GM parts websites. Last night tackled the first one. Other than it taking me a while to get that connector apart and transferred to the new shock it went smoothly. I took pictures along the way as I disassembled to ensure I got it returned the same. This video saved me over $1000 by providing me the confidence to do it myself.

      @@DK11913 I ended up buying the Specialty Products spring compressor 40260 from CarID as they had the best price. Amazon has a knock off for about half. This spring compressor worked really good and I had no problem. I think specialty products has a UA-cam video showing how to use it if you go to their website. I was worried the auto parts store compressors would be too flimsy for the heavy duty springs as many posts I found warned about. Didn’t want to take any risks. I don’t do that much work on vehicles either and found it to be easy enough to do. I struggled with getting the connector apart and moved to new shock. Be patient!! Take some pictures as you dismantle to assist in putting it all back together. Took me 3 hours for the first and 2 hours on the 2nd.

    I replaced my front shocks today. thank you for the helpful video. Special Note per the GMC Dealer: When disconnecting the battery, connect the ends of the battery cables with a vise grip to initiate a reset of the computer. When you finish the job, the 30 min reset time will be complete as well. The reset is needed if your old shocks were damaged and the system was compensating. When I initially drove my Yukon, the front "floated" after bumps-like a 70's Cadillac! The reset (above) completed and a 20 mile drive cured the "floaty feeling" it had. Thanks Aaron!

One tip, make sure to realign the strut to the mount and the 3-bolt tower or you'll have to recompress the spring. Passenger side went in easier after that. Thanks for the help here.

    2015 Yukon Denali 4x4 with 58k miles, factory 22 inch wheels. Around October of 2019 my two front and right rear units locked up and started leaking. The dealer quoted $2,900 to replace. I didn't want to pay that insane amount as well as periodically replace this poorly designed suspension every $60k miles. I decided to switch from the magna ride to conventional using an aftermarket conversion kit. The conversion kits include front strut assemblies, rear shocks and struts, and the wiring deletion kit so the computer doesn't freak out. I found an issue that some Denali's experience with this modification, factory wheel size will produce different front end ride heights. Most of these conversion kits are designed for 20 inch wheels yet nearly all Denali’s come with the 22 inch wheel creating a height issue. After converting the struts my front end ride height was 35 inches, factory should be +35.9 inches. The .9 inch variance resulted in an extremely weird look, low enough that the wind deflector scrapes on parking curbs. The ride is great yet that look bothered me so I added a 1 inch leveling kit. Now the ride is awful and my caster is -4.5 after alignment.
    I reached out to the manufacturer and I explained the variance with the 20 to 22 inch wheels, they agreed and decided to replace the front assembly with longer units. Basically they are going to replace the entire front units from a 5 coil spring to 6 coil. Next week I am going to replace the units and remove the spacer. All I care about is a normal ride height and ride quality.
    Here are my current struts, very compressed.

Mine was the dorman all in one product on a 2016 sierra 1500 denali. 1 hour job on youtube, took me forever to get even the sway bar link off, just my luck. The fastener holders at bottom of shock that came with dorman are wrong ones, had to transfer over the old ones. that was a nice surprise running the bolt up into wrong thread -- DORMAN 949730 (2) . going to finish the attaching the sway bar now and then the 2 bolts and electrical.

    I still have a rough ride after replacing all of mine. Dealer did the first one and I replaced the other 3. I read in the forums one person cleared codes to get the ride back to normal. I have no ESCM codes or otherwise. Anyone have to do a ALC Trimset recalibration after doing this? Shop manual seems to indicate it should be done. Going to try it today and see if it helps.

      Tires play a big role in this. Test drove my truck with factory tires - rode like a Cadillac (being a denali 1500). Swapped my DuraTracs on it, and it's a LOT rougher ride. No more Cadillac :(

      @@tbon22s Yeah, I'm a little pissed that a year into it, the dealer said yeah probably tires except they're the ones that recommended these tires over OEM and then told me the fix is to replace the tires which they wouldn't prorate or give me credit on. I drive so little I probably won't be due for new tires until I sell it unless I fall into a pile of cash but I did like the original OE Continentals on it. They said the firestone ones they sold me had a lot of ride complaints.

      Cost $800 ruffly parts and labor. Came with connectors. But our still rides like Sh#@. Back in shop today. Has service ride errors. My f150 with a lift rides better. It's like a low rider without shocks.
