Does anybody have a tt/shackle lift and still run their Air ride? I have mine disabled after the lift, and the thing rides like crap, I am wondering what could happen if I turn it back on. I have thought about extending the sensors, and its still a possibility, I just dont have time to make them yet...thanks
 






You will have to move the sensors to make it work.
 






I left my air ride system on after the TT/AAL/Shackles. It rides just fine, but once and a while I get the 'Check Air Ride System' alert on my center console computer. I just push reset and it goes away. I think it is just a little confused, but the system still works. If I have a heavy enough load in the back, I hear it turn on. Moving the sensors seemed like more work than it was worth to me. Ride quality is as I expected after TT/AAL and shackles, a bit stiff, but very acceptable.
