Last month I replaced my front magrides with the Arnott MR-4262, the recommended magride for my Yukon XL. I'd seen a lot of positive reviews on these.
Before replacement, vehicle ride was stiff you felt Al the bumps, post replacement, I feel it got worst. The bumps are a little smoother, but it still rides like a stage coach.

I forgot to take a before and after measurement, but the front end is definitely at least an inch higher now.

I replaced the rears, air leveling magrides w/Arnott after a few weeks, didn't make much of a difference.

I talked with Arnott, and their only suggestion was to get the suspension position calibration procedure done. I'm going to bring it for that on Friday, but the dealership already feedback, that they have never had to do this for a shock replacement before.

I'm frustrated with this after spending nearly $2k on new shocks. Really wish I had gone with a delete.

Thoughts?
