Hey everyone, new to the thread but we have had our 23 Denali since last year. We were getting out of a lease and didnt have time to find the EXACT vehicle we wanted, but got pretty close. The only issue is i would have liked to have the air suspension as well as the magnetic dampers but couldnt find one in the area. Does anyone know if you're able to add the air suspension afterwards? I'm assuming there is a lot of programing that goes into having both.

Probably cheaper to trade it…

Find what you want - aftermarket add-ons of 3rd party or OEM features are mostly impossible. The only feature I've seen people retrofit is the digital rearview mirror, but that system works on its own "network." Once you start adding features that need to communicate with the BCM/ECM/PCM, etc. forget about it. The OEM air ride system will air up/down the suspension when you get in and out of the rig. It will also lower the suspension when at highway speed. Way too much software, wiring and ECUs that are not installed on a rig w/o air suspension.

There are many air suspension systems on these rigs that have bugs/issues straight from the factory…cant even imagine trying to compile all the parts, pieces, wiring, plumbing programing etc. and having it all actually work correctly on a retrofit job. And the cost would have to be absolutely outrageous. Doable, but i think it would make much more sense to just trade your current rig in on one that came with air already.
I suggest you TRADE and get air ride. Too many electronics, switches. If you decide to do it or let someone else do it, sell all your guns to Kamala. She will keep you alive. You will have dark thoughts.
Chalk this one up to the learning curve. You will not regret the air ride. Make damn sure that when you take it in to get it aligned that you read the manual and ask how they will be doing it. Cost my dealer a set of tires that wore out within 1,000 miles and me as a customer.
