have you adjusted the height sensors before installing the controller? you can always go to a machine shop and have your front height sensor rods shortened with threads added.

so setting it at 9 is the lowest i can go with the data controller? i dont want to lower my sensor. i want the data controller to do it all for me. i hope lowering my sensors isn't my only option. but thanks for the help mikepae.

On your initial setup of the Datasystem controller, if you have selected the "Extra-Down" mode, all you have to do to bring it to "L" (the lowest) is get the setting to show "9", then keeping your finger down on the lower right hand button for 3 seconds, it will now show "L". Wait approx 4 to 5 minutes for it to fully dump and dump it will causing the wheels to go into the fenders. Basically un-drivable. Set that into your memory so you don't have to keep your fingers down next time.

Are those TrafficStars you got there? Cars looking good.

PS: Make sure before you go "L" that your wheels will clear the fenders, otherwise there is going to be some ugly happenings

it automatically goes back to 9, but does it still automatically drop an inch @ 60 mph?
