Looking to drop my 2024 High Country with Magneride/Adaptive Ride. What have others done? What works? What should I be aware of?

Doesn't the air suspension already address your "Entry/exit ease" need? It gets pretty damn low.

Best option to drop it reliably is to swap the entire suspension to the PPV (same as the RST Performance Package), but imagine there is a nightmare of sensors and modules that need to be reprogrammed/deleted IOT make it work without a Christmas tree on your dash.

Yes there is an easy exit selection on the screen. It lowers the truck when you put it in park. I use that all the time.

The air ride system has sensor rods at all 4 corners. There are some available lowering "kits" (I say "kit" loosely because there are no actual hard suspension parts) with adjustable sensor rods that are threaded so the length can be adjusted allowing available lowering from 0”-2.5” drop at each corner. I'm guessing 0" would = stock height?


These are probably the simplest, non-intrusive, adjustable, and easily reversible method to lower a T1X SUV with air suspension.

I believe there are other threads and members of the forum that have used these adjustable lowering sensor rods on their air suspension equipped T1XX SUV's as I have seen them mentioned and discussed here on the forum.

EDIT: Short thread with another members feedback on the lowering links:

Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that member @Bdmiller4494 is very active to provide any additional insight or experience with the lowering sensor rods. But if you click the link to that thread his post provides a some feedback on his experience and ride at the different stock ride height settings.

I just did this to my 24 Escalade. I used black moon lowering links on eBay. It’s a pretty straightforward install. It’s easier with a lift and as someone already said it replaced the stock air ride sensors that can be adjusted to lower the truck. I lowered mine about an inch and a half and there’s no difference in ride quality. You just have to adjust each end of the rod evenly as in one turn on top and one on the bottom. I’m really happy with it and looks great! Same as when entry exit mode is on but doesn’t go back up when driving. I disabled the entry mode so I don’t potentially bottom out the suspension but many people say they had no issues with it. Def gate a alignment afterwards.

Thanks for your note. I usually am out the door before the exit lowering is done! Guess I am in too much of a hurry.
