I installed these vigor air ride struts in a 08 cadillac escalade but after i was done my stability track, traction control and abs came on, do you have any idea why ?
I also installed the matching air compressor
Dude, you have done a great job with your videos, I very much appreciate your help hope everything is great for you and yours thank you again
I really appreciate your kind words.
Got the Arnott shocks for my 2002 Escalade recently I'm happy with them.
How are they ?
Any update on it?
Thank you for the video.....I have a 2011 Yukon Denali....I was looking for some
My suncore shocks been working great about 3.5 years now. They do the job.
Glad to hear your experience was better than mine.
Great video and explanation!! This helps me a lot
Glad to hear it!
I have to buy the whole system the air pump and struts for a 2009 tahoe I'm going to buy the vigor thanks to you Thank you for the video keep them coming
No problem! Hope it is an easy installation for you.
@@FarmDad I'll send you a message once I do it
Thanks for the Vigor resource. Bought a complete Suncore kit for my 2003 Ford Expedition in November 2017 (approximately 10k miles ago (not my daily driver)) $1,400 for the parts only. One airstrut was bad right out of the box. Suncore replaced it, but it held up my repair for 9 days. December 2020 dryer connection failed. December of 2021 compressor failed. February 2022 airstrut just failed. Original Ford Air Ride lasted 14 years. New suncore just barely, barely, lasted 3 years before the first failure and its been down hill from there. For what its worth, I think Suncore stinks.
Agree 100%. Still haven't had problems with the vigors so far.
Follow up January 2023. The other front strut just went out. (did I mention I don't really even drive this thing?) 10-50 miles a month. SUNCORE=RUN AWAY
Well done. Am looking for conversion struts for my Magneride Z95 suspension on a 2015 Suburban LTZ and will look int this company for a possible application. Kudos on the train video!
Thanks! Appreciate it.
I installed a set on the rear and a Vigor ALC compressor yeaterday. The ride is great, now lets see how long they last.
So far, mine are still doing great.
Vigor makes a complete setup for the fronts now. Mines will arrive Saturday. Hoping for a wonderful result. I will have new rears, fronts and compressor from vigor. Also new lines too. So excited!!!
Good to know! You'll be riding smooth!
Hi @Farmdad, how is the vigor air suspension holding up after 2 years? How many mileage have you put in with this?
@@pelesuratach9480 still good. I can't remember where I started mileage-wise and don't know where I sit now, but I bet I have put over 30k on and still no issues.
@theplantedtank I’m intrigued about the lines. 1 of the small line sections on my burb has a small hole worn in it (it looks like the line was laying on the compressor and direct heat melted the hole in the line). any feedback on the install and performance thus far?
@chrisheringer905 it's still good so far. But I'm having a connection issue with the electric connector on the front struts.
Nice video 👍🏻
Thanks!
I installed a couple of suncore rear air springs on my MB CLS and both of them it last around of 6 months before it being damaged by it self.
It's sad that suncore is still in business and doing this to people.
Watched both your videos, I think the shocks on my 2012 Suburban LTZ are going out and I am really leaning towards these Vigor's you have linked. Do you still own the Denali? If so do you have any long term updates? How have those plastic fittings held up? My Suburban has 170k miles and I plan to keep it as long as possible so I want to make sure this purchase goes another 150k miles. Thanks!
So I have a leak on my passenger side air shock, 2020 Suburban, pulled a travel trailer twice, then noticed the leak. What’s your thoughts on why it failed so soon, 41k miles. Got the burb used, so not sure if had towed anything before. Thanks for any input 👍
Great video. Question we had c0585 04 left rear damper circiut open. Gm test said if I put test light on A and B wiring to shock and is lite up before I turn damper ON with scanner then the escm is shorted out. Also got no power to the 30 pin on the alc relay underwood. Is the test preformed to say escm correct thank you for any help. Cheers
Might give these a try on my 2012 yukon denali xl...
I'm still happy so far.
Excellent video. I have a 2008 Escalade EXT. This weekend is a major drive train and suspension overhaul. Front...doing CV axles, struts (shock/spring assy) and bearing hub assy. Rear doing the air ride shocks. I ordered the Vigor 2597934. My truck has 97,000 miles and is starting to ride like shit. The front CV axles are popping and clacking like crazy. The front suspension is rough and just for good measure I am doing the bearing hub assy's. The rear, also rough. I tow trailers, large boat and an RV (travel trailer) and the truck used to detect the ass squat and kick in the air pump and lift the rear end leveling. Now the pump kicks in and it lifts a little but eventually just squats the truck to the ground. I believe it to be the air ride shocks. I will report back. Just wanted to see some videos on these Vigor shocks.
Sounds like that escalade is going to be as good as new. You are fortunate to have one with such low miles!
@@FarmDad I bought the truck in 2012 with 30,000 miles. I work from home so all the miles are from taking the kids to school and 2-3 road trips per year with the travel trailer but most of our camping trips are no more than 300 miles each way. Yes it still looks like new inside and out, pearl white outside and black inside. The 6.2 has loads of power. But the shocks and CV axles are toast. Totally lost the "Cadillac ride". But with my auto stereo expertise the sound system will rattle the windows in your house from a block away. LOL
@@ScarabChris rock on! 🤙
@@FarmDad and @scarabChris I have the same 2008 cadillac ext mine has 104000 miles and having the same issues with the front struts and back suspension. What do you recommend for the front and how your back suspension is working with the Vigor? Thanks for any suggestions.
Thank you thank you great video
I appreciate your kind comment!
I love me a Denali. Thinking about getting a 2017 model
Sweet.
Which Arnott shocks were you running before? Were they the passive models like the Vigor or the reman OEM active style that maintained the electronic ride control? I purchased the Vigors and have yet to install but wanted to know if this is an apples to apples comparison.
Both the vigors and the arnott are the exact same OEM-style air shock, so yes, apples to apples.
I just purchased a set of arnott magneride replacements for my yukon denali after the ac delco one failed. I have been emailing with someone at arnott regarding the differences and it sounds like they come from the exact same place. This is what he told me:
There would not be any difference in the MR-3626 and GM AC/Delco shocks since they come from the same manufacturer and same place AC Delco gets them. The MR-3626 is $10 less and it has a two-year warranty whereas the GMAC Delco part (same shock only have a one year warranty.
I guess we will see though. Hoping to have mine tomorrow to install.
Thanks 👍
Welcome
Great video. Been doing a lot of looking around the last 3 days. I do not want the expense of fixing and replacing suspension parts with 200k on the 08 Baby Burb. I assume vigor are oil filled with air bag accessory mounted to it for the leveling effects. Now Remember, My system is entirely shot on the Burb. Going to use RANCHO RS999928 front strut assembly which gives a 2" lift. Can i install these vigors as a standard shock installation and then adapt air lines so i can adjust air pressure to raise when towing or heavy hauling? My other option is to install GABRIEL 49155 air shocks but I really want the hydraulic effect so if air is lost my shocks don't go completely flat. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance. Keith
I believe you could. So your burb didn't originally have air shocks? I can't remember what options came on those. Stock, these z55s adjust air pressure to level it based on payload. I would imagine so long as you have something telling it how much air to put in and a compressor, I see no reason it wouldn't work. But I personally wouldn't retrofit to an air suspension if mine didn't come factory with one because it would just be too much work and expense. Now if your burb is a air suspension, these should be direct replacement.
What did you do with the electrical connection?
So are the vigor air shocks still good after two years?
So im wanting to buy the vigors and thanks for the video!! I think my 12 yukon has magnaride and def has z55. Can i buy the vigors or do i need to get somwthing magnaride specific too? Sorry if this sounds dumb. I know very little about air suspension.
If yours is a 2012 Yukon, you do not have magneride, which is z95. Yukon's didn't get it until 2015. If your Yukon is a Denali, you have z55, which is autoride, and will need the same Arnott shocks I tested in this video. I still have them on and haven't had any problems yet. 👍
if you pop that air nipple cover off BEFORE you put the shock in you can move it up and down way easier. That will keep you from tiring yourself out needlessly.
Good tip, thanks!
Ok so I installed these Vigor rear air shocks on my 2008 Escalade EXT. I also did a bunch of work on the front, struts, CV axles and bearing hub assemblies. What a difference. I didn't know how bad my Caddy was riding until now. I will make the assumption that if you want your truck to ride like it was new then change ALL the shocks at the same time. So the factory air shocks were totally gone. They would not hold pressure at all. The new Vigor shocks work perfectly. I put some weight in the bed of the truck and instantly the old factory air pump kicked in and leveled the truck perfectly and held the pressure. Before the pump would come on and run for what seemed like 10 mins but not much change in ride height. The air bladders on the new shocks stay nice and tight. Worth every penny!!!!! The only question is....how long will they last? Time will tell. Forgot to add......the old shocks were so light in weight compared to the new shocks. They were 1/2 the weight as the new ones. Maybe all the oil charge leaked out? But just holding the old and the new I could tell there was a difference.
Glad you got the caddy all fixed up. That's weird about the weight difference!
Hi! How has your suspension held up? So far so good?
im about to put these on my 2011 Yukon Denali XL. I hope my results are as good as yours!
I'm still happy so far.
@@FarmDad I installed them and I like them so far. My only issue is I’m still getting the C066-06 code and the compressor won’t run. It’s a new compressor (Dorman). It will run if I bypass the relay. The airbags will be empty after a while.
@@SgtColkitt sounds like that relay is bad.
Was that Alpine and the Monahans sand hills? That's where I was born and raised.
Honestly, I have no idea, but it sounds like you were raised in an amazing place.
Do you have the Z55 or Z95 suspension? Will these work as replacement rear shocks/compressor on a Z95 optioned vehicle? I do not mind not having the magnetic ride capability on the rear suspension. This would offer considerable cost savings over stock Z95 components.
I have z55. I am hesitant to say whether these will work effectively on a z95 with magnaride as I have not tried that.
@@FarmDad how do you know if you have z55 or z95?
@@xrunner800
Check left side sticker inside glovebox it a list of letters and numbers if it has Z55
What about the front shocks ive been looking for full set of my escalade and I choosed what you recommended so far Vigor. I believe the price of the front is so high so do you have any recommendations for active shocks ?
I'm using oem on the front. I haven't compared to aftermarket so I can't advise.
@@FarmDad thanks man,, and are you still happy with Vigor air shocks in the rear ?
@@mohammedjalal736 yes, sir. They are still doing good.
Do happen to know anything about the compressor? Did they send you a compressor to try?
They sent me one but I accidentally told them the wrong model so I have not installed it. It looks comparable to others I've seen in the past but I haven't tested one.
I purchased these after seeing this video, and after installation found one shock is leaking from the base of the nipple body that the air supply clicks into. It bubbles with soapy water even with air line removed (air trapped inside shock with finger)
I emailed the company and am waiting to hear back from them
I'm sorry to hear this. Please let us know how the company responds. If you don't hear from them in a timely manner, I'll reach out to my contact there on your behalf. She was very responsive to me. Is there a bad weld on that nipple or is it leaking at the connection to the airline? I've seen where shocks will leak at the connection if the tech doesn't get them on all the way.
I was thinking about ordering these. Did they respond in a timely matter?
Also are these passive or active?
@@scottwhite5367 They had me send multiple pictures and videos, im assuming they did not believe me. I was then told their tech was looking at the pictures and video. A few days later they issued me a refund, saying it probably got damaged during shipping.
I ordered a new one with the refund and had no problems. Would have been nice to not do the install twice but it is what it is I guess.
I will say the way they package the shock is not very secure so I was not surprised it got damaged during shipping.
Cool
Thanks
do you have any similar go-to's for the front end ride control?
Afraid I haven't tested much on the front end.
What, No Monroe's ? Does the truck have the auto levelling system in it ?
Hey Bubba! Yes it does auto level. As common as Monroe's are, I don't think they make air struts for this one, but I could be wrong.
I have a 2006 Yukon Denali 1500 and my rear air shocks just took a dump, I been trying to order a new pair but not sure what route to take, I also order a new dorman air compressor to go with the new setup. I went to the vigor website but when I put my make and model it only shows for Yukon xl so I’m not sure if it’s going to be the same for my regular denali? Thanks in advance.
It should be the same. Some Yukon xls did not have a z55 air suspension, but as long as you are buying air shocks, there was only the one kind on yukons in 06.
@@FarmDad awesome, thank you. One more question, did you hook up your shocks to your existing air compressor or did you have to replace it with a new one to make the new shocks work? In other words would I be able to plug and play to the new Dorman air compressor without a problem?
@@jimenezr6 should be plug and play.
I tried to read most of the comments but they aren't in order by most recent. How are the vigors doing now? Looks like they are pushing about a year old.
Still good. No problems so far.
@@FarmDad thanks for responding. I just bought an 05 ESV and both rear shocks are busted. I imagine the compressor is bad as well.
I purchased a pair of these for our 2011 Yukon Denali. Installed them and I regret that our Traction Control, Stabilitrak, and ABS light came on. I double checked the electrical and air connects to the shocks and everything is in order. I’m sorry to ask if you’ve experienced anything like this and if you have a solution, because no one answered the support phone number at Vigor when I called twice at 3:45pm EST on a Thursday?
I have not experienced this. In a case like this, it's very helpful to read the codes to see why the lights came on, but you'll need a scanner capable of reading those systems. Many times it's a wheel speed sensor (front hub replacement) but there's so many possibilities. I would double check that everything is plugged in good where you were working and no wires are damaged.
After trying a couple at home remedies, I took the vehicle to the mechanic. They said it was a "wheel speed sensor" that was causing the error. It's ironic how changing the shocks coincided with the wheel speed sensor needing replaced.
check the blue connector on top of frame above top shock mount, arnott says this frequently gets unplugged during install
These still holding up? Need to replace my whole escalade system. Its all blown 😅
Yes, so far so good. Just got back from a weekend trip and still riding great, no issues.
@@FarmDadawesome, Thanks 👊😎🫡
Got a base model 2020 suburban lt. don’t know how to convert all for shocks from non air to air suspension. Los Angeles roads are worst in California
I don't think it would be worth the hassle. Instead I'd go with a quality aftermarket shock like Bilstein.
I have a 2006 Denali.xl that needs attention. We put heavy loads on it. Do I need to replace the coil springs for heavier loads ?
No, that is the point of the air shocks. They will level a heavy load. Even with stronger springs, you can't exceed the payload.
I put the in coil airbags in to help take the load 150 bucks few hours of messing around getting them installed and the combo works great
I liked your videos but I can't recommend Vigor air shocks. (I do have their pump but time will tell on it) My issue with the shocks was not leaking or anything like that. The top eyelet broke off while driving and almost destroyed a brand new tire when it fell over against the tire and wedged between it and the air pump housing. (And yes, everything was properly installed and torqued) The only thing that saved the tire was the inner fender liner and the fact we were able to pull over immediately. This happened under 2 weeks after installing them and less than 300 miles of usage. Looking at it, it looks like it was just poor welding at their factory. On the part of your video where you compare suncore and vigor and say that suncore is more beefy at the top is 100% right. Suncore is much closer to ACDelco/OEM in that area. I'll either be replacing these with Suncore or spending the extra money on ACDelco. In my opinion, the Vigor shocks are dangerous just because of how the top eyelet is attached. I'm just thankful it broke at low speeds in town and didn't snap off on the highway!
I'm sorry to hear you had that experience! Mine must have had a better weld at the top as they are still going strong. I had a really bad experience with suncore, so definitely think you should go ac Delco, if you can. Best to you.
Suggest go with Dorman
Did your shocks ship from china? I placed my order on 11/8/21 and barely today (11/18/21) did I receive a email of my order being on its way, but from some city in china. Should i be concerned about this?
I think they did come from China. I did not get email updates since they shipped me a set to test without me buying them, but if I remember correctly, they may have come from China.
@@FarmDad how are they holding up so far?
@@MegaVictor006 no issues. Still riding good.
FD--- how much BETTER are GM A/C delco compared to Vigor? Could you elaborate?
So far, I haven't had any problems with my vigors. So it's hard for me to say that ac Delco is better. Ride-wise, im not sure I could tell a difference. I know ac Delcos usually last more than 10 years, sometimes much longer. My vigors are still going strong at this point.
Where are you brakes in the back of the truck
It looked like tou used the existing GM air compressor. Is that satisfactory?
I actually used an existing Suncore compressor that was still functioning. If your gm one is still functioning, it'll be more than satisfactory. I accidentally provided Vigor with the wrong model number, so I was not able to try the compressor they sent me.
How are the shocks holding up so far?
No problems yet.
Do you know if these will fit on 2016 Yukon xl Denali?

What shocks do you recommend for the front?
That's a good question and I really can't answer it as I haven't tried more than one brant. I'm running oem (ac Delco if I remember right) on mine.
There are struts on the front.
Hello! I have a 2008 chevy tahoe and the rear shocks are bad (air ride suspension) I was quoted a $6000 by a dealer to replace, then $2400 by an independent shop to replace. Then I was told it should be way less that that even. Can someone please give me insight? I thought about converting them to normal shocks- also. Any tips and advice would be appreciated!
It's not a super difficult job and the parts are pretty affordable. I would do it yourself, if possible. Otherwise I'd try to supply the parts yourself and get a shop to do the job for labor cost only.
arnott shocks n compressor
Anyone modified these to work on a jeep? Lol, thinking about doing it with a manual air up and release. This aftermarket system doing well on my lifted Yukon.
Follow Up? How are they holding up a year later?
Still pleased with the Vigor shocks. No issues so far.
Can you do an update on the ride quality and longevity?
I don't have time to make a video at the moment, but I still own this Yukon. I haven't noticed a change in ride quality and I haven't had any issues with the vigor shocks since I put them on. I'm very happy with them 👍👍
Can't remember what mileage I was at when I put these on, but I'm at 295k now.
Thank you for the reply! I just picked up an escalade and the bags are flat, shocks leaking so I was looking for a cost-effective solution.
Do you have magna ride in front?
No sir, z55 is electronic.
FYI, replacement OEM shocks have lifetime warranty
Are the air bags on the front? Or only rear
Only rear
@@FarmDad thank you so much. I have same truck as you. Almost bought front bags for no reason. Couldn’t find an answer online and mine has after market front struts that we’re there when I bought it.
I heard air suspension only lasts 5 months. Is that true?
No, not true
Are these vigors passive or active?
Active, just like oem.
How can they make active shocks so cheap? It’s almost too good to be true.
So 8 months later how are they holding? Would it be a good buy or not?
No problems so far. Still riding good.
How are they holding up , 1 year later ?
Still good
Great , I just purchased some for my w220 Mercedes, so hopefully there just as good
So can I bypass the air suspension? An go with the rancho rs9000 style shock I have a trip coming up with a decent trailer wanting to be able to adjust why do you think?
I stuck with air shocks because I tow. Plenty of people have bypassed and bought shocks like that, but you can't beat the leveling of an air shock when towing.
@@FarmDad Interesting thanks for feed back I usually tow with my truck but ended up having to use the Yukon for the towing on this next trip in two weeks I was worried about the rear sagging due to weight didn’t think it would be smart enough to level itself out!
oh awesome :)
i literally JUST crawled out from under my denali …
after installing some fresh SUNCORES.
ima just go float it down the river.
🤦🏼♀️
& i was so excited 😭
@@leexxxa hopefully you will have better luck with them than I did 🤞
it's me again - i felt that my initial comment is one that begs of some justification (& maybe a little self redemption, maybe).... so...
as for justification - I don't have any. cheap is as cheap does. I have learned in this industry that "cheap" is often actually "hella expensive" in a masked disguise. lol
suncore never made it off of the jacks or onto the road .. majorly in part due to having seen your video. I could not, in good faith & love for my truck, put something that carries with it such a host of negative reviews & expect it to perform as i want & as i need. at the end of the day - my truck has just clocked over 300K (true) mi. on the dash & 80% of those miles are traveled on the factory, stock parts that she was built with. so I know everything is tired. not just the shocks. a POS shock + 300k old parts- didn't sound right to me. I'm lucky to be able to replace parts preventativly rather than repairatively & at the pace of my wallet.
so yeah this is so long; I haven't a clue how to sum it up so I'll just end here for the sake of you having a life outside of reading this comment.
I replaced with OEM stock, not aftermarket... I just went with the same ones that carried me to 300k as I know I can trust them. I rebuilt my compressor & that saved me a bit.
but thanks again for this & saving the rest of my suspension system from a bad decision on my part.
Have u tried the Front shocks⁉️
I have not.
2yrs later. What's the update?!
Still no issues. I'm happy
I can’t describe how much anger I have gotten from max speed air shocks
I haven't heard of them. Please post your experience so others avoid them. Thanks!
@@FarmDad they barely hold air mad fragile and the top where the bolt goes and the bag would always collapse casing the air bag to sag to the bottom of the shock leaving the metal rod of the shock exposed
The Arnott is garbage I just put it on my 2016 escalade I should have just spend the extra money n get the oem the ride is horrible
My arnotts had a rough ride too.
OKI don't know about how you buy things but then people there are so sketchy I've been trying to get ahold of someone for 2 days fine I get this lady with a sick accent telling me there's the only phone number that you can contact people with to talk to the technical department she would call them with my concerns and then call me back because the technical department didn't have telephones maybe maybe you could reach out to me and tell me how these people are people are the best because I feel like a scam thanks
Hi Bob, I didn't encounter any issues like that. So sorry that you are. Please let me know what problem or question you have and I'll try to reach out to my contact at vigor on your behalf.
@Farm Dad OK years ago I didn't understand the generally have the air ride in the back and I'll lift it up to the vehicle up incorrectly and I broke the small Eric hose and I'm believing how hard it is to get one of those the compressor went out so I'm trying to find out if they sold a compressor and the air hose kit along with the rear shocks and the front shocks The lady told me it sounded like I needed to talk to technical services and I said yes please ask her if she could transfer me as she told me no they don't have a phone and then she said that if I told her what was wrong she would get in touch with them and lay my problem for concerns and then she would call me back with their answer I'm I'm working on the 2008 Yukon denali Xle rear shocks
Air compressor and atr lines
And front shocks.
Thanks Farm!
@@bobdittmer4560 apologies! I didn't get a notification you responded so I'm just now seeing this. They sell an air compressor but it does not come with the air lines that it sounds like you need. You should be able to find "air suspension compressor lines" on Amazon or through your local parts store. Hope this helps!
I don't like the new you tube
Dude please oem is the best fool stop it vigor is garbage so is Arnott
Oem is great but too expensive, especially for an SUV with 200k miles on it. I'm still happy with the vigors so far, especially at the cost savings. Ride is still great and no problems so far.
@@FarmDad then tell the truth you only saying this vigor garbage is better because the oem is so expensive we already know that if u are into escalade like I am I have try all those shocks on my 2016 escalade esv after 2 days I took them off real talk spend the extra money n buy you some oem shocks/ struts it will save you a lot of headache and aggravation caddy supposed to ride smooth those aftermarket garbage can't do that
@@jelanyjecany3005 did you watch my video? The vigors ride fantastic. The only unknown is whether they will last as long as oem, but so far so good.
But for under 300 for a set on Amazon the vigor work perfectly on my 06 yukon with pulling my loaded trailer around 6500 lbs .with a 60 doller 2 year warranty and parts shipped to my house in 2 days seems like a no Brainer for the vigors.
@@bryceorich4070 dude not because it's cheap means it's better fool fool it's just cheaper but in terms of ride quality fool there is no comparison to the oem fool if u are trying to save some money yes but if you are realist who wants the best ride quality that garbage cannot be compare to the oem
About Silverado 2003 1500HD magnet shocks?
Which shock would you recommend for towing a boat/trailer? Thank you!
I like the vigor. I have towed a 21 foot ski boat with mine. They performed just like the oem and so far no issues.
@@FarmDad thank you Sir! Keep up the great work!
@@FarmDad Suncore or the Vigor? Been trying to comb through the comments to see how the Vigor's are holding up, as my wife's 2015 Tahoe needs new rear air shocks, towing our 27' camper last week was doable, but bouncy, and mostly side to side. Compressor kicks on repeatedly on level garage floor, something is up. Looking to find replacements, was looking at the arnotts on RockAuto, but found your video, and the Vigor are half the cost. Just looking to confirm you didn't go back to Suncore's after two years?
@@RichardRinfrette oh thanks for that catch. That was a typo. I probably was responding to comments while doing multiple things at once and had a brain fart. I do still indeed have the vigors ony Denali and I have had zero problems so far. I think they've been on 2 years now and maybe 25k miles.
