"wrecking" the engineering,
Yes, there is a reason that vehicles are designed the way they are. Suspension geometry is important. When you modify a vehicle because you think it looks good then it's vanity. We've all done it at some point.
I'm not here to knock your choices. You've got your reasons just make sure your headlights aren't blinding everyone.

I think that only the 22s had sensors. Parts shortages took that system off all the other trucks.

You dislike the look? Seriously? The factory rake on these trucks is ridiculous.
Well shit! Went out and looked on the front right I found this plug. I have a feeling this is for front level sensor. Me being the stock nerd that I am now will have to look into this further. My truck only had one deletion and that was the advanced security pack which I have since added back in for a whopping $38. lol.

Which is why it pointed out a wide variety of vehicles, including a Ford with near the exact same suspension, that FROM THE FACTORY is setup exactly like what a "leveling kit" does.

Literally, factory trucks, and from the factory comes with the front suspension at a geometry that is exactly the same as what folks are doing. That was the point for including those vehicles, not because they are "big truck looks cool" , but because they specifically use the factory suspension at a higher ride height, with no modifications to the geometry.

Which is why using the words like "WRECKING" is a lie designed only to push someones agenda. Especially when your example is NOTHING like what we are talking about. If your only point is to use extremes then you are not doing so for justifiable reasons.

I don't think you understand what the word vanity means. Which you yourself said you like to have the rake for loads, by your own argument there is no reason the back needs to be level, other than for looks. So by your own argument you liking the rake is because of vanity then. This is especially ironic from someone with a Lariat.

From your profile it looks like we have the same truck... can you share the part you ordered to get back the deleted features and if you find this is the leveling connection for the lights the part you install to get them back?

Let me get the part numbers together. I added the security back and added back the lighted cup holders. Both were pretty easy to do. And do me a favor and send me a dm so I don’t forget. I’m working on that front plug but I do get scatterbrained and might forget. lol.
