Anyone try these?

Looking at replacing the rear air shocks on my 04 Yukon XL Denali, and wanting to retain the factory autoride and electronic dampening.

Has anyone tried these?

I'm guessing by the lack of responses, they are not very well known

Awesome. Please let me know.

The kind you bought doesn't bypass the electronic dampening correct?

@usafdenalidrw , I ordered the ones with the sensors for the electronic dampening.

Sorry for the delayed response. Just got my new shocks and compressor installed this morning. Not sure how to put up a link. I ordered mine on eBay through a company called touring tech. Bought their brand replacement shocks. Direct plug and play install and they Re setup to function with the electronic ride control system. Only drove across town to make a stop at the post office and then home but so far so good. Nothing out of order so far. No warnings in my DIC. And the ride is great so far. Think this is the link. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=272175706963

Yeah everything is good. Today made a week and no funny business. Ride is pretty nice.

Update: So the pair I ordered from touring tech seems to be holding up fine. But the little plug where the air line plugs in doesn't stay seated right. The little plastic clip holds it in just kind sits there and doesn't keep it plugged in tight. Looking for a permanent solution. Its zipped tied right now but it's still not secured. Any thoughts anyone?

 

[usafdenalidrw]

You said zip ties didnt work? What about an epoxy on the fitting to hold the line on?

If I epoxy it in than its permantely glued and if I have to replace the shock down the road than its just stuck there to the shock?

 

[usafdenalidrw]

I was thinking depending on how much slack you had in the line, you could just trim off the little bit of the end of the line where the epoxy is, when to need to remove the line and replace the shock

So what do you think of those shocks? everything seem to be working as it should?

 

[adventurenali92]

@usafdenalidrw , any update? Did you get your shocks installed?

Got them installed. Direct fitment. Looking at replacing the compressor now though

Those are CHICOM Arnott Knock-offs. Avoid them. They are passive, NOT electronic.
