New Magneride shocks - Which brand to go with? OEM/GM, Arnott, other?


Recommended Posts

I need to change out my stock Magneride shocks on my 2015 Sierra Denali, and I've read older threads where Arnott shocks may be shorter than stock due to being made for Yukon and not Sierra, and I've read of some people having issues of some other cheap replacements.  Are there any suggestions that people have experience with that have had good luck with non-OEM brand Magneride shocks, to avoid the OEM price markup vs all others?  Trying to save some money vs $1500-1600 for OEM GM shocks if possible, but also don't want them to go out in a year.

**No I do not want to get rid of the Magneride system and go to Bilstein or other non-mag ride system.

I used Arnott in my '11 Navigator to delete the rear air ride. The shocks work great, and it rides like stock. Their customer service over there is also fantastic. 

This was done several years ago, so take this for what it is: I'm not on my first set. Or my second. I'm on my third set. Each time, one of the shocks would eventually develop a creak or something. I'm 2 years in with my current set, and all is well. And, as I said, their customer service is excellent. But, they cover the part. Not the labor. So to swap these shocks 3 times isn't great. But at least they stand behind them, (this may be a Navigator/Expedition only issue, but it's the only experience I've got.)

Went with Arnott on our rear shocks on the Suburban. Rides great.  When the front Mag shocks go, I will replace with Arnott for sure.  Now to see how long the Arnott last.
