    GM ALC (Automatic Level Control) Air Circuit Bypass Guide

    I have not seen this before, but seems like it would do the trick. Most folks who bypass the active suspension put resistors in line with all 4 electric wires going to the 4 shocks and then pull the compressor fuse.

    The Bigger the shakier!

    Maybe a stupid question, but did you get the wheels/tires balanced at a quality service establishment, and did they use RoadForce balancing equipment? With a RoadForce balance, part of the process checks for wheel issues (bent) and tire issues.

    New Arnott magrides are very stiff/bouncy

    You are correct in that if you are going to replace the front springs, the rear springs should be changed at the same time. At ~150k miles, replacing the front springs lifted my front end about 1 inch.

    Glitter in the oil after the DOD delete?

    I'd change the oil again and see if the number of metallic glitter decreases.

    Front end Rebuild

    RockAuto.com and GMPartsDirect.com are your 2 best bets for quality parts at lower prices. If you are looking only to 1 solid year out of them, IMO, any cheap aftermarket parts will likely do it for you.

    2025 Yukon XL Denali Ultimate

    +2 My first truck was a standard Yukon (RIP), but second truck was a Yukon XL. There is a world of difference between the 2 truck sizes in usable space. I rarely have more than 1 or 2 passengers, but almost always my two 90+lb white German Shepherds travel with me, so my 3rd row seats are...

    Stabilitrak and Traction control lights issues

    You didn't state what model truck you have. If you have the Denali, it has the Z55 active electronic suspension. When the alignment was performed, it is possible that an electrical connection was disturbed. Check the electrical wire connection on the top of each of the front strut, to ensure...

    2017 Tahoe premiere

    I would not attempt to disassemble the strut assembly myself, as a heavy duty spring compressor in needed for that job (very dangerous if you don't have one). What I did was remove the strut assemblies from the truck, as the removal and installation process for these struts is easy if you...

    For the Z95 suspension, replace them with genuine GM shocks. RockAuto.com or GMPartsDirect.com will be far cheaper than your local GM dealer.

    Will 20" tire improve ride quality

    As stated above, the larger the wheel, the lower the profile of the tire, and while this may improve handling, you will 'feel' more of the road and its irregularities. The 'vibration and shakes' would suggest some slack somewhere in your suspension components. Check for leaking shocks, check...
