Level with Bluecruise

[Kanonprop]

I have a 23 Lariat with bluecruise, if I level the truck will it render bluecruise inoperable? Thanks

I leveled mine (22/25 front/rear to 24.5/25) and moved up to 34” tires and blue cruise still works fine

I'd suggest changing the value in the IPMA with forscan regarding your new height and perform a bluecruise alignment. I'm going to play with increasing the truck's IPMA height more in an attempt to get to engage more on roads with narrower lanes.

Without telling the IPMA that the truck is now taller, the system is more inclined to ride lines / become sloppier at holding the lane.

Thank you…

I added a 2" ReadyLift in front and went to 34.5" inch tires. No problems with Bluecruise.

Would this be applicable if we just level the front by 2" and if so, could you be kind enough to point out where we adjust that in FORScan? Thank you!

changing the value in the IPMA

Please elaborate on this value and details of what you are changing, what are the choices, etc.

I put lowering shackles on my truck and didn't notice any difference good or bad. My BlueCruise hands-on (lane centering) never has worked as good on lesser roads than my Maverick's lane centering (hands-free with weighted steering wheel hack). Any improvement to BlueCruise hands-on on lesser roads would be great.

IMO and assuming no more than 2" of height change, it is doubtful you need to do anything. If you're going to pay to have anything checked then have your headlight adjustment checked. If you raise the front then you've raised your headlights and are blinding people.

I lowered my rear and turned my headlights downward one screw rotation to compensate. I don't feel the light output of my low beams was degraded.

What’s everyone’s stock value?

I believe mine was 1005mm

I just added the increase of front ride height to the stock value

I actually think measuring the increase in height of the mirror would be most accurate.
Adding a 2” level to the front doesn’t increase the ride height 2” at the camera.
I’m going by a ford dealer later and will measure a stock truck and see if there’s a difference

The instructions for the Ford Performance Bilstein kit (available on their website) shows how to adjust the radar and the headlights post lift. Doesn’t mention cameras or anything else. Might help?
