  1. New to this Forum here. I have a 2019 suburban Premier 4x4 w/Magnaride suspension. Has a rattling sound in the front end. 62k miles. Replaced the front shocks myself. I added a rough country 2” leveling kit while I was at it. Sound went away for a little bit. Took to a shop. They said that the sway bar bushings and end links were bad. And well as the putter tie rod ends. I replaced the bushings and end links. And the shop replaced the tie rod ends. I almost never use a shop. But it needed and alignment anyways. So for 400$ I thought it was fair to have those changed and aligned. It still makes the same noise. I told them from the beginning that I thought that it was bad ball joints. I’m really thinking that’s the case. But I did change the shocks and seen something online about the shocks having a failsafe. Do you guys know anything about this? It seems to me like the ball joints are bad. But this guy has 25 years experience in front ends. So you wouldn’t figure he would steer me in the wrong direction. But the noise didn’t go away and I’m about 1600$ in the hole. And it’s so new. I just want it to ride good again. Also. I am perplexed that the dealship says the ball joints are “unserviceable” and the whole control arms have to be replaced. That was just a phone call I made looking for OEM ball joints. I can find just the ball joints on Summit racing and Napa. That’s it. So I’m thinking there is something I’m missing? Do you guys know if these are truly unserviceable? And do you think it does need some kind of computer reset after changing the shocks? Anything would be helpful! I’m about mediocre in experience and front ends are not my strong point. More of an engine guy!
