Aftermarket magnetic ride shocks

[Dexmon]

Hi guys good evening, hope all's well with everyone. I have a "15 Escalade and it needs front shocks. I'm seeing a lot off aftermarket shocks being advertised for it.
Anyone on here ever tried these aftermarket shocks? If so, can you tell me your experience with them? It seems like GM is in short supply because every dealer in my area I call don't have any in stock and don't know when they're getting any in stock.

Let’s see if we can get this post moved to the 2015-2020 section. Might get more assistance over there.

Welcome to the forum from Virginia there are several vendors on line that carry oem parts. Try rock auto or gmpartsdirect. @915_Tahoe can find some too. He’ll need the last 8 of your vin.

Hi, yes I buy all the parts for my truck from rock auto but they don't have any stock and they're in short supply. My question though is can I use any of the aftermarket shocks out there.

You should have MRC shocks. I think one of the options option is Arnott shocks. Aftermarket is very limited for MRC shocks. If you have the part number try Ebay and Google. Several Dealers sell parts there. Better pricing, free shipping and no tax. Good luck with your search.

yes. Just make sure it fits your rig and has the plug in for mrc.

I installed the Arnott Front struts (SK-3354) and rear shock (AS-3066) my '15 Y XL Denali in Dec. Magn-aride was stiff and could not roll over parking lot speed bumps without many bounces and rocking. Pot holes would shake your bones. was also saging as it had over 130k miles
Arnott/Eibachs have been great for the 3,500 miles we have put on
fit was perfect, plugged in to the electronics using the OEM connector, No codes so far. rear air compressor/leveling works as before.
front wheel well height is now 36.5" rear is 38"
ride is smoother and more connected to the road. many long trips and each time my wife and I say this was worth the investment.
Dirt road are a breeze now, feels like an offroad vehicle with the eibach tuning.
Bought the rears through rockauto.com the fronts from AutoZone as everyone was out of stock/backorder on the front struts except Autozone. they had a higher list price but offered a discount coupon (online) that made the price the same as rockauto

This is good information and feedback, I replaced the fronts on my '15 Yukon XL Denali with some OEM MRC units. But I may look more into the Arnott/Eibachs for the rear since they are probably coming up soon. I'm at 106K miles.
