Techart Lowering Module

Hey guys, I think I messed up. I purchased a 955 Techart lowering module only to realize it is not compatible with 04 models which were built in 03. Unfortunately, mine was built in 9/03. I have done some research, and it has pointed to possibly changing the level sensors to the post 04 versions, but every post I read is very vague. Does anyone have part numbers or expertise on the subject? Thanks!

Sorry haven't seen any posts about swapping the level sensors, but it should be straight forward and probably worth a shot; especially if you get them used. The techart lowering module is an awesome module.

Wish I could help, I just I ordered the softronic tune that comes with the durametric cable so I will be able to lower it. I just like the auto slam when you turn and lock the doors.

I love that feature as well, but more important to me is the extra 1" of height in the special terrain mode as well as a 35mph limit instead of 19

With the durametric software you can customize hight to your liking up or down.

Technically yes, but it is not quite that simple in reality. You have to break out a laptop and spend about 20 minutes doing it and hope you dont run into the software "bug". If so, that 20 minutes can easily span into a couple of hours.

With the Techart, the highest setting is taller than stock and the lowest settings are lower than stock. No need to touch it again.

Guess that's why they charge what they charge for it.

I lowered my current Audi S6 and 958 CS with links. ive also lowered my previous Mercedes using links as well, cant beat the price and its fairly easy to adjust and install. comes with instructions, etc. I bought them from this guy named mark in the UK, shipped them overnight fedex for $120 a set. (depending what paypal/USD to pounds exchange rate is, it may be higher or lower by a few dollars)

+1 on this. Super easy and fun to play around with. I wish they sold adjustable control arms to go along with all these "lowering kits"

I am tired of blowing through tires just for aesthetics. It certainly doesn't make the truck handle better.
