Suspension adjustment (OEM) question

[fredericroumi]

Little question here...Just bought an ‘03 V8 Limited and the back end seems to be jacked up too high! After reading up on it a little and checking the truck I noticed that the bracket on the rear right (near the bag) is broken. I was able to locate the switch it has to be connected to but turning it one way or another does nothing.

However, at this point the position (on the dash) is at neutral and it does go up and down when operating from the height adjustment button.

That said, and keeping in mind that I don’t want to necessarily “fix” the issue and I can definitely do without the height adjustment feature, is there a way to adjust the “normal” height to have the truck sitting straight and keeping it this way?

Thanks for your help!!!

You can lower it to the low setting and pull the fuse. Or adjust the turn buckles at each sensor about an inch lower.

Thanks for your help!!! Second option seems to be the best for me, but adjusting them doesn’t seem to change the height at all. Is there a procedure I should follow or simply crawl under and adjust the left and right sensors?

Its possible you have a bad sensor, there is a voltage check in there for the three positions.
