In full disclosure, I'm looking at a 2020 Yukon XL.  I posted in this forum as it appears to be much more active than the Yukon / Suburban forum and I was hoping to get a handful of responses from owners with 2013-2016ish trucks who might give me a sprinkle of hope that this suspension isn't just expensive trash. 

An important fact omitted from 1st post......

Replaced both rear shocks on our 16 LTZ Tahoe at 60000 miles, have not touched the front ones yet with over 85000 miles.

I know that my fronts were replace at 56K last January on my '16 because I did them.  The rears are original best I can tell and currently at 60300 mi.

I just bought a 2015 sierra denali and unknown to me it has different shocks from the magneride. Seems like basic model shocks and causes my suspension light to come on. I would like to know if you ever found out about these as I am about to replace them and wanted to know if I should go rancho, fox, or get the factory magneride put back on. I don't wanna waste money on so etching for 50k miles I wanna put that much money to a quality product.

There are magneride bypass kits if you want to run regular shocks with no diagnostic lights on. Check out Xineering

Bypass kit is like 300 bucks
