Help!! will my loadleveling be affected by add-a-leafs?
I have a '96 XLT (the European version) with automatic loadleveling in the rear. Will I experience any problems if I put in a add-a-leaf? Any of you guys tried that?
I don't mean to ask over and over again, but the guys in the "import-parts-for-US-trucks"-shop(that seems to be my only way to get the add-a-leafs here in Norway) didn't know if it would matter. He actually hasn't sold anyone for explorers yet at all, so...
I have tried the search(great you finally got it ut'n running again Rick
) but didn't find anyone mentioning the combination loadleveling/airsuspention and lifts.
Guess I could just turn the whole system off, but it would be a shame to have it and not use it, so I keep hoping it will work out okay..
Is there any way to "readjust" the shocks so they will work together with the added hight? Will it adjust itself when I turn it on again after adding my new leafs?
Or will the loadleveling just not start working until the susp. is below stock hight if I leave it the way it is?
Well, hope anyone have tried this, cause I'd really like to lift my truck a little bit, and I guess it would look kinda stupid with just the torsiontwist, and nothing in the rear(it woluldn't level out by it self because of the loadleveling by any chanse....? he-he... guess not..)
Thanks for your time!
