Hi Marco

I'll change upper rear wishbone soon should I do before or after calibration?


Since changing the wishbone does require the sensor link to be removed, I would at least verify the calibration afterward. It may not need to be re-calibrated.

Quote:
Certainly before 4 wheel alignment?


Yes, the suspension must be correctly calibrated before a wheel alignment is performed.

Cheers

Has anyone tried the automated script in the IID tool or is it best to stick to the standard method?

Just follow the auto method on the app, does all the maths for you.
Just measure and adjust very simple Thumbs Up

So I may have screewed up

So I went into test/build mode in the IID Tool and deflated my whole system, due to assumed water in the lines causing suspension faults. I replaced the Desiccant in the compressor so decided to try this as maybe it would run out the water.
I have a 2" suspension lift with Rhino rods and I didn't measure before screwing with this. Once I deflated all I screwed around with the height adjustments. Know I think I screwed up my heights due to being an idiot and note noting original values.
The truck is back up and looks right but does anyone have the physical measurements who have either rhino or Johnson rods at regular heights. I figure I can measure mine physically to match yours and adjust corners if needed. I mean it's riding right to me and looks right but I want to assure this.
Or of someone has the measurements at regular heights (no rods) I could add 2" to that measurement and adjust mine to be right.

So if you decide to mess with the height adjustment don't so what I did, measure all corners and note the values at the standard height before you mess with it.

Standard Heights

Found them in a previous post:

Without Lift Std Height Front 466 mm, Rear 485 mm

I'll add the rod adjustment and recal with the IIDTool after physical measuring where I am now.
This time with notes.
