Ride Height

[mbrund]

What you say makes a sense. Like I said, my back end does not come
up but about 1/2" when just the suspension switch is placed in up
position, but comes up fully when I air up the tag. Once the full
chassis is aired up by airing up the tag, when I dump the tag the
back stays up. In fact because the back right side appears to be
higher then that left, the right rear tag comes off the ground when
the tag air is removed.
