Lifting a 19 1500 with oem air ride

[[email protected]]

Looking for info on lifting my 2019 1500 that has factory air ride. Truck auto lowers at 40mph. Any way to override the computer???

I read that pulling the fuse is the only way to stop the auto lowering.... doesn't seem like a good option to me...

That’s what I read as well. Seems ridiculous that Mopar would make a suspension system that can’t be lifted.

It can be lifted or leveled. BDS lift, CFT links to level.
Factory suspension isn't designed to be a lift kit. You definitely don't want to pull the fuse. You basically end up with no suspension at all, because the truck can't adjust to the road.

Lots of threads on it. Just curious if you researched the suspension before you bought the truck?

http://bds-suspension.com/product?ma=2&mo=16&ty=96&yr=2019 Link to BDS air ride lift... it can be lifted. My other post has a link to someone on here that lifted their air ride truck. Just doesn't look like turning off the auto lowering is really an option.

Maybe some of the nifty little electronic devices that are out today could shut that option off?

No way to do it, and I would say don't do it it causes Soo many other problems you don't want to encounter, and can meet the system up completely. That happened to me on my 4th gen which I sold cause they couldn't get system to work properly. Bds has 4" for trucks with air suspension don't know about 2019 but they did for gen 4.

I think you mean "it goes back to Normal".

Unless there's something wrong.

I have a 4th gen sport that I just used Alfaobd to change the ride height settings to the Rebel and set it to an off road truck in the body control module which gave me the Rebel suspension options and says rebel on the dash screen when you start it.

stock was

Offroad 2
Offroad 1.
Normal/areo.
Entry/exit.

Rebel is

Offroad
Normal
Areo
Entry/Exit


So now I can ride in offroad 1 up to 100km/h plus the truck is more level. I plan on messing with the height settings some more. You can see in the one pic that normal is now the third bar on the suspension

Edit: new picture of before and after messing with the height settings some more, a little higher and more level!!
