I have a 2017 Ram and recently had a leveling kit installed. My air bag suspension sensors keep popping off and the warning light keeps coming on. The dealer is trying to tell me that the sensors are now over extended and I need to get an extension for them. Do they even make such a part? I don't understand why leveling the front would have anything to do with the airbags in the rear. Does anyone have info on this issue? TIA

Would need additional information to diagnose
for example: What leveling it, What errors appear on the dash, etc

Rough Country 2.5" level, Suspension air bag system needs immediate service (something pretty close to that)

Rough Country does not R&D their kits in depth and often get strange issues.
Post the part number to the kit you have and I can tell you what needs to be addressed

Sounds to me like you’ve installed some kind of spacer lift. If that’s the case , yea your front airbag sensors will be out of whack.

I have a 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie 4x4 with air suspension. I want to level the front. Does anyone have any recommendations? Or does anyone have any experience with these?

Ive never heard of anyone having any big issues with those, outside of the normal issues that come with factory air setup in general.
