free level w/ air shocks?

novelmike · May 6, 2017

I cannot find it anywhere, (went through 20 pages) but I remember reading on here about a guy that switched something on his air ride shocks and got some lift out of it. I think he switched the sensors from the rear to the front?
Can anyone confirm this?

Not sure about a free solution, but I'm in the process of leveling mine. About $40 in parts off eBay. Drivers side just sits about a half inch low, working on shortening the link some more.

I saw how you can either buy new links for $300 or make or modify your own for WAY cheaper.

I can kinda picture the guys truck in his sig. He's from the north east, black or dark colored truck. His truck might be a Rebel model, and he was young too. Maybe under 24 years old. That's what impressed me the most is how he was able to think of switching the sensors to gain a little lift.

Anyone remember the guys name?

Here is the parts I used for mine; good for a 2016+

To do the front you need 2 each of the joints and the rod is 3' and your links are like 3.5" so you just need 1 rod. I got 2 incase I messed up. eBay seller is zorotools

If it's pre 2016; you need 4 8mm instead of 2 8mm and 2 10mm

Good to know! Thanks!

I did this to mine. I snapped 2 sensors on my truck (f*** me right?)

Parts were $60 CAD plus the $116 per sensor.

I ended up putting it back to stock after it was squatting with trailers on.

If someone wants the links I made, I'll sell them to you. They're just sitting in my tool chest.

What ride height did you have them made to be at? Did the sensors snap when you loaded the truck or what happened? How much do you want for them?

why was is squatting in the rear? Shouldn't is keep itself level under load? Did you move the sensors from front to rear AND make new links?

I think I had it set .5" lower in the front than the back. They're fully adjustable though.

I'd sell them for $40 plus shipping

I don't know why it was squatting. I didn't move sensors from front to back
