Ok so I put a 2" leveling block in the front of my 2008 navigator but I was told the rear air ride will lift to match the front.The compressor kicks on but would raise it enough to match it.Can someone please tell me what to do to lift the rear 1.5"-2". I thought about drilling new hole on the rear a arms for the ride height sensor or taking it to a dealer and having them recalibrate the ride height but not sure if they will do it or it will work.

Thanks

I think you're on the right track with the ride height sensor adjustment.

Although I haven't seen the ones on the Navigator, I kind of doubt that they'd have enough "throw" to simply be recalibrated. If you've got space to move the mount-point though, that's definitely the way to go.

I agree the ride height sensor adjustment would be the way to go.
Why would you raise the rear you will cause nothing but problems your braking and handling will be compromised . I believe the only way the rears would come up is under load to even the ride height

I've seen plenty of trucks with a 2" lift, but I don't know that I've ever seen a Navigator.. I have to admit, I'm a bit curious. Although you're right that there's a detriment to handling and control by doing so, sometimes, there's a good case for a bit more ground clearance. (and sometimes, you just want it to look cool.. :) )


So what I'm saying, is that we want pictures when you're done with this thing...
