Hello all,
I know that in general the Vigor suspension has been discussed before (and in many cases warned against) and while past me now wishes I'd avoided it, I put the full Vigor treatment on my 2006 Yukon Denali several months ago. Their support, as many know, is completely nonexistent, so I come to ask the fellow owners about a possible path forward.
My issue is the bouncy ride when the Yukon is mostly unloaded, which would suggest to me either the springs are worn out, the right height sensors need adjusting (though i've tried that) or the parts I put on are just flat out junk (which is my leading theory). When there is some weight in the back (300+ lbs) it smooths out and is what I would consider borderline acceptable. But unloaded a reasonably sized bump is just about enough to make a person seasick.
My question is: has anyone had the experience of going from Vigor back to the OEM setup? Was it a notable enough difference to justify the cost? My Yukon came with a worn out set of Arnotts and given the lack of a reasonable warranty at this point, I am hesitant to go back to them. Is there another solution I'm not thinking of?
The only other idea I've considered is rolling back to 17" wheels from the OEM 20" wheels to try to gain back some cushion in the ride. I really appreciate any thoughts or experiences any of you have had.
Edit: I just now realize I've posted this in the wrong forum, I'm really sorry! Will see about moving it.
