Lowering Modules

Seems this may be the best way to go to get rid of that God awful wheel gap.

Has anyone found out a more reasonably priced option for the modules?

I am looking at 22" wheels that are $3k and a module that's $2k.

Seems unreasonable.

Any suggestions? Any pictures to share with different sized wheels?

I think they're pretty overpriced as well, that's why I have a saved search on ebay haha...
Anybody ever see anything like this though? I assume it locks in the suspension at whatever height you have it at (ex: put it in loading mode and twist the **** on to lock it in). Not interested in this method, but intrigued...

I have one of these...It plugs into the spare tire air compressor under the passenger seat. It locks the air suspension in place at what ever setting you set the air ride to.

I have the techart module, found it on eBay a couple of weeks ago. It was a simple plug-n-play installation for me (09 gts), remove the old module, pop the new one in and all set.

It lowers the car plus has a cool feature that lowers the car to 'loading level' when the alarm is armed.

Very happy with it, although I don't think I'd splurge and by a brand-new one, a pre-owned one works just fine, so keep your eyes open. Just make sure the one you get is programmed already, otherwise you might have to bring it to a dealer to calibrate it.

I just installed the H&R module today and it seems pretty good so far.

Hey Turkish I just picked up a RENNtech Lowering Module. Have to splice two wires in order for it to work doesnt seem too difficult to install. Ive read up on the others and Renntech seems like a really good brand. I will let you know how it works out

Our H&R ETS Module is plug and play. The H&R ETS works with the factory suspension to lower the chassis up an an additional 40mm over the factory setting. Retaining the factory height adjustment switch, the ETS modules are plug and play with no wire cutting, splicing, or wrenching. Change the settings of your factory air suspension and get a more aggressive stance and improved driving characteristics with the H&R ETS.

It would be nice to see Techart get a little more competitive in price OR another company come out with a module with the same auto lowering function when you exit/lock the truck. I don't want to sound like a ricer/tuner fan but I have to admit that's a cool option for our airbag suspensions.
