I have a Z55 Autoride suspension. If I replace the front with a conversion kit - replaces electronic design shock with passive design. Includes sensors to bypass shock control. Will it effect the rear struts if they are still electric?

Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.com.

That is a really good question since the vehicle suspension is reading front to rear all the time. I feel it is may be okay; however, the vehicle's stability control may be affected. If the aftermarket manufacturer does not require you to replace all four, you should be okay. I am not exactly how the sensors you are using will bypass or eliminate the need for height issues, but I feel confident that if they made them, it should be fine.

Let me know if you have other questions.
