REMOVAL
1. Remove the wheel and tire assembly using power tool. Refer to WT-41, "Adjustment".
2. If equipped with the rear load leveling air suspens ion system, use CONSULT-III "EXHAUST SOLENOID"
active test to release the air pressure from the rear load leveling air suspension system.
3. Disconnect the height sensor electrical connector.
