Default can the sensor for the air ride be tricked?

I have added the 2" torsion key lift to my H2 and it sits higher in the front now and kinda sags in the rear. Is there anything I can do to trick the sensor for the air suspension to ride higher?

Can someone post a pic of the sensor location? I've looked under there a couple of times, and can't really figure out where it's at...

I don't see where they can be adjusted, guess I will take a closer look after some more coffee. I know my friends H2 seems to sit almost an inch higher and she doesn't have air suspension.

FWIW On the Fabtech lift kit, which is not suitable for air ride H2's with the non adjustable sensor, it uses a bracket with plenty of room for adjustment.

I may well be wrong, but from what I've been told there is adjustment in the air ride on the earlier H2's, although the manual says there is no adjustment. Maybe it is at the other end of the sensor, the part attached to the uppoer control arm.

I will check it out later and see if theres any play to slid the sensor with the bolts loosened up. It always adjusts apon startup, so I think the hieght difference bewteen our rigs was.

A: had been sitting for hours.
B: my tires are about 5k away from being toast and hers are like brand new.
