Default Suspension claps at 50 mph.

I went off roading and broke the passenger sway-bar link and when i got on the freeway I had a suspension fault and it slammed to the ground. I replaced the the link and jacked it back up got it all set and then it was leaning to the drivers side. I surrendered and sent it to the shop. They said it need to hight sensor on the passenger side front and rear. replaced those, not fix. The shop is have a problem getting a Six wire hight sensor. They bought a used one off eBay. They can't get the computer to reprogram the LR3. It does have different height rods and spacers to lift the LR3. I know I'm rambling here, Looking to see if anyone has some thoughts?

Last time that happened to me, my sensor bracket had bent and calibrating the EAS was difficult. I'd look for any sort of deflection or mis-alignment of the bracket. I don't think you need a 6-pin sensor. They were revised a while back but should be interchangeable. I'd also jack up the front and check the clearance of your front control arms and shocks. Could be time for new air springs.

6 pin sensor has been superseded, why would you use different height rods and spacers ?.

He probably has the SYA spacers.

I remember someone else not too long ago having a really hard time recalibrating their suspension that had lift rods and spacers. I don't remember what they did to fix it but they did eventually get it sorted out.
