Confused about lowering

[NORCAL SS]

No. If stock links are in there the compressor would kick on to try to keep the rear up. Like I said light on dash won't go away. Those linkages won't do it.

GO to store
Get 10x 24 machine screw
Cut ton2.75 inches long
Replace oem rod in rear

Turn on truck and sign will still be on dash and air compressor will not function correctly. Im.just trying to help you resolve this issue asap.

By removing the front shocks the system will stay in fault

Called and spoke to belltech and we missed the shorter rods. So they are on their way.

They also confirmed that the kit was made with the intentions of the drop to keep the air ride system in tact.

The nitro shocks which they had suggested are also made for the 02 caddy as a factory replacement. Although i did not climb under the front, ive been assured that they plug in or attach or connect (whatever the proper term is) to the factory stuff, in order for the truck to see them as it did with the factory stuff.

just wanted to post this public for future learning experience for others.

Just seeing if you got light off dash? Also airlift 60742 ie needed if towing. It just helps take off pressure from the oem air shocks in rear.

No not correct. Belltech never made a shock to plug oem system into on any of their front shocks on autoride. It's a replacement shock but does not keep autoride working. You will need to Splice in resistors to get it to work right. Then autoride will work and no more lights on dash.

If your towing for sure get airlift 60742 helper bags. They are perfect and even improve ride quality when no load is on the truck. I did a how to thread few weeks ago of me installing them on a tahoe which shows it all

Waiting for those shorter rods to come in.

When they don't just give me a holler I have the resistors. Just did a 06 esky yesterday guy put in Gabriel shocks in front and autoride stopped working. Spliced in resistors and light turned off and his autoride works now

U got a deal. Have ur number saved.
