I know this is an older thread, but the ebay magneride you listed are 100% counterfeits. ACDelco does not sell loaded spring/shocks for this denali. I hope you got this from a reputable retailer.

I just did this repair by getting just the strut and swapping it out. Easy job. Unless you’ve had an accident or something really odd happen the springs should be fine.

I went back and forth about doing just the shock, or the coils and I'm glad I did the coils as well. I went with ARNOTT MR4262. I did not know, but my old front springs had sagged significantly since new. The new ARnotts lifted the front almost 2 inches and after a week, it's still about the new height, which tells me my old springs have sagged. Artnotts ride very nice... so far.

Yeah that packaging looks legit.

I got the arnotts, and they lift up the front about 2 inches with their springs. i would recommend getting OEM and re-using old springs. and get them from reputable source like rockauto. ebay is full of counterfeits that look REAL.

As @mrkev states. They lifted my front as well so I ordered just struts, borrowed 2 sets for a total of 4 spring compressors and did it myself. It brought the front back down and I still have the ride quality of OEM.

What brand is the OEM?

 

[Big Mama]

GM or AC Delco is the label. Maybe someone else knows who makes them. If you go to gmoartsdirect.com and enter your VIN you’ll see them. Rock auto also has direct replacement parts.

What brand is the OEM?

BWI makes them, but I think they are labeled ACDelco. Dont buy from ebay. I got the Arnotts. Not really liking the 1.5 inch lift i got. If anyone wants to trade for a stock shock that's OEM, I would trade them. My arnotts are pre-loaded with springs.

And the front being lifted was a surprise to me too.Holding oem next to Arnott shows them with equal heigh. I’ve got my Arnott front and rear setup on marketplace to get rid of them. For reference I got AS-2715 for the rear and SK-2954 for the front. Both with resistors. They didn’t work for me.

I replaced the rears on my 2020 magneride Suburban with Strutmasters a week ago. To hedge my risk I bought a 3 year warranty for $40.

Had them installed professionally and the ride is a real improvement. My struts hadn't started leaking, but the ride was on the harsh side.

Dealer's diagnosis was that new rear struts were needed. But the extended warranty didn't cover the cost.

So I ordered the strutmaster struts for less than half price. Much better option than the suspension delete options I've seen discussed.

I'll keep you guys updated about how they perform. But for now my 'Burb rides show room new. I can only imagine what it will be like late this summer when I get the first set of replacement tires.
