I think but don't hold me to it thou, only the rear lowers. I beleive this is because the front end does have torsion bars on it plus the air shocks. The front shocks I think should have some air in them at all times. On 4x4's if you switch to 4lo the truck is suppose to lift 1" or two. It doesn't always work on mine.

i need to know your front and rear ride height. threw the center of the rim from the fender well to the ground.

also if you could give a a distance of the bolt sticking out of the torsion bar mount. and also the length of the front shock. if possible.


thanks

Just checked my height with the Expy shut off, after sitting for 1/2 hour.


Fr. Driver 34 3/4" -- Fr. Pass. 34"

Rear Driver 34" -- Pass. Rear 33"


From a 2001 Expy. Eddie Bauer on 265/70R17 BFG Long Trail Tires, measured from ground to bottom edge of wheel well through the center of the tire.
