Installed @DesertDoesIt seat jackers in the front last night. Not sure yet how I feel about them. Definitely feel like in sitting up higher
 
With the help of a buddy I got the new suspension installed yesterday. Fox Performance Elite 2.5 front and rear, Dirt King UCA, and Deaver Expedition Stage 3 leaf packs. Took about 6 hours to get it all done and aligned. I had no idea how rough of shape the Old Man Emu lift had gotten until I drove this. Sections of road that used to rattle my kidneys dont even register now. The 2in OME measured 22in hub center to fender bottom on all 4 corners. This new set up measures 24in at the front and 26 at the rear.

Have a seat in the rear?
I only installed the rear set at first which alleviated a lot of the pressure I felt on my lower back.

So I installed the grill yesterday and I love it changes the whole front end. But now when I use my acc it deactivated and tells me to clean the sensor

It’s possible you need to have it recalibrated. Not everyone needs to when swapping to this grill but some trucks do that so that could be your issue. It could also just be dirty I suppose lol. I haven’t had an issue since swapping to the pro grill and lifting the truck. But each truck is a little different. Double check your work and go from there
 
I’ll turn on the acc and it works fine for maybe a mile then it thinks no one is in front me and speeds up. Then after doing that it turns it off and tells me to clean the sensor. I wore gloves while doing the swap

Did you start the truck when the sensor was unplugged by any chance? Also if you hold the cruise control button for 3 second or so it will disable the adaptive function and act as a regular cruise control. I would double check your work though. Verify the sensor is secured properly and the plug is connected properly. Make sure there’s no protective film on the garnish still. Tons of people do this swap and don’t have issues. I’ve never heard of this issue either
 
Finally got around to installing my 33" skinnyboi spare! Couple of whacks on the brackets and a shimmy towards the back of the truck and she sits nearly flush. Could probably have thrown in a few more whacks but i don't imagine 1" is going to make a ton of difference in clearance. She's tucked!
