Default Autoride Air Assisted 07 Tahoe

I've already got post going in the GM section about me choosing a new suv, but it's getting to be crunch time and I've got a new concern.

I've got a 4x4 LTZ lined up, right color, right options. I want to lift whatever I get, and now I'm worried about the Air Assist leveling system that comes on the LTZ. I've read that a lot of lift systems won't work on Autoride vehicles.

If this is a problem, the I'll just opt to find a 4x4 LT model with the add-ons.
Thanks again.

Mick

Contact Rancho. They have a kit out for the 07 Tahoe but I'm unsure if it's compatible with the Air Assist

I contacted them before I posted here, and I'm still waiting for a reply. I would call, but I'm in New Zealand right now.
I've got a feeling the Rancho is not compatible with the AutoRide, but the description on their website is confusing.
What's the past experience with this...if the Rancho system doesn't work, can I expect someone to come out with something that will? Thanks again

I know that when you lower with the AutoRide, you can bend the sensor links to fool the system. Maybe all that's needed is longer links. Best of luck

that sounds sensible. although I've never seen a sensor link on an AutoRide, i would imagine that something could be fabbed up to make it work. i guess we'll see, i talked the guy in dealer in TN down a good bit, it looks like it might be the one
and thanks 8mc, you've been a big help
