shock extenders and autoride

[macky]

would the truck sit any lower in the rear with just shock extenders and bending the sensor rods. like most, i just want to level the truck out, but all the kits seem like i'll end up with the cali lean. all the 2"kits say not for autoride. i was told that both the mcgaughys and belltech 3" kits can be set to 2" by bending the sensor rods less. seems like lowering the rear is a very popular topic, but only 1 person was succesful?

I used the shock extenders and cut off abount an inch off the links and it sits about 5 inches lower in the rear.

i have autoride also and looking to drop are the shock/strut extenders for the front and back worried an expensive air shock will go bad if i drop and compress them more than the stock ride

Air ride is only on the rear.

I think Conor meant "Shock extenders are only for the rear", I say this because Autoride/Airride is front to rear.

Really, I always thought that the air ride was just rear. Or am I thinking about the auto level?

 

[Modded]

Oh no Autoride if front to back, self-levleing is the rear only I think.
