Default Lifting the GX460

I am going to install my Radflo suspension with UCA's tomorrow. I was wondering what do you do with the module that sit on top of the front shocks? Would it trigger any dash lights if I remove the module. What does your wiring loom look like after the aftermarket shocks/coilovers are installed.

FSM states front stabilizer bar has to be dropped in process... those who have done this will have to chime in as I am not sure. FSM instructions attached.

I was able to install my suspension today without touching the KDSS at all. To lower the passenger side LCA, I placed a jack under the KDSS piston. To lower the driver side, I jacked the LCA of the passenger side. This method gave me enough clearance with some prying. Thanks.

I will probably have to do something similar with jacks on my rear when I install my C4 rear diff skid.

How much lift do you get on that suspension upgrade?
