Making EAS Height calibration blocks

Looks like I'm converted back to the Tasmanian oak, after checking prices for Nylon rod and then finding some 28.5 mm Tasmanian oak in the shed rafters put away for a rainy day I reckon its meant to be.

Anybody out there with Gen 3s maxed out their High mode? I generally use Standard Height for off road (with 2 inch lift and 285/75s) and only use high mode for water crossings and inclines and departures. Thinking of setting the front to 2inches higher and rear 2-3.5 inches higher on high mode, but before i do, advice from others with experience doing this might save me some pain.

Resetting the system to exploit the extra length on the Gen3s is a 'mystical art';) I haven't personally tried to set the system as you describe ...however.. a lot of reading I have done suggests that the firmware in the system operates not only on a range of absolute 'bit' values for each setting, but there seems to be a 'proportional' relationship governing the steps between the 4 major height settings.

For example, if you want to retain the existing access setting then the highway, standard and high settings respectively will be set accordingly. I suspect you can increase all the settings by a fixed amount, provided the relationship between the height setting ranges as defined in the firmware, is maintained, otherwise the whole system will default to "normal" values.

Storey Wilson of RSW solutions Welcome to RSW Solutions has uploaded a series of videos explaining his free software and how to attain an all round increase in height... good luck with it!

Hi Paul,
There is a set range for each height setting, so as long as you keep tghe values within each range you can play around with each to achieve best reult for your preference.
I do have value noted down but not on this computer, I will look them out & post up soon.

e.g. I have 2" lift & GenII's & I have altered my settings so that in Acces/Hwy/Std they are at low end of available values then Offroad is closer to high end of values that way I get most gain from change between Std & Offroad as car sits high enough now in Std for most offroad situations then I can gain much more clearance for high obstacles etc in offroad. I find now with 33's & 2" lift that I don't need to use offroad much at all.

Thank you Gents,

These are the ranges that the height sensors have to fall within:



And there is also mention in the easunlock instructions that the left to right settings may only vary between 1 and 10 points.

Print and file for reference. Essential when playing with your EAS settings:

The actual value depends on a dozen different measurements and their tolerances. Don't sweat at all about different values. Especially if one or more sensors have been replaced.

This page has useful info as well

Alrighty, calibration blocks now made, have also made 2 extra sets for high mode, 1 set 1 inch higher and another set 2 inches higher than high mode.

Hopefully by the weekend I will find the time to play.

Will let you know how I go.

Thank you all again for your help.

Now it's come back to me. For the high ones I just added packer blocks on the axle plate under the standard ones. Made it easier to get the high blocks out as you can tap them out off the flat axle plate.
