Default Adjustable height suspension

My husband bought the inspiration lx and we were wondering if there was a way to keep it raised while the truck is parked. He likes the look of it raised when parked but can’t figure it out. TIA!!

Press the Easy Access Mode button. It should eliminate your woes.

Thx. He did try that. It just puts it in normal mode when parked. He’s looking to keep it in high mode when parked.

What happens if he raises the truck to HIGH and then turns off the AHC system. Will the truck stay high once he turns off the engine?

I do this sometimes when I change my own engine oil on my LX570 to give me extra height/room when I'm down under with the engine OFF..

Put truck in high mode, press the "Off" switch for AHC. Open door and shut off engine. It should stay in the high mode.

Mine stays in high mode if I put it in high before I turn off the truck. I keep easy access off and don't have to turn AHC off.

put it at make sure easy access if off. Put it on High > turn off the engine! It works every time when I do it.

Check out the IH8MUD website for a “sensor lift”. You can have an extra inch of lift in all settings with 10 minutes and a wrench.
