2023 Raptor F150 801A
Stock suspension

So i recalibrated my suspension today, several times actually. I put it in engineering test mode as directed in forscan, and then recalibrated. With fuel being nearly exact, i have recalibrated several times and consistently have come up with 3mm front, 12mm rear. I cannot get this thing to zero like people talk about. Am I missing something or is this where it should be at stock. Everything was way out prior to. Thanks in advance.
I believe this thread mostly applies to 2019+2020 Gen 2 Raptors mainly. Gen 3 could be different...

I just did this. Thanks for the write up!
Is there a Gen 2 forum area just for Forscan questions? I get a few "triangles" when doing the initial scan of my truck. (Pics below) I dont know if these are errors etc. I'd also like to find out other Forscan "mods"
Thank you

id clear them and take it for a ride and then check again..

hit the DTC button and youll get some more info but seems like theres always some random loss of comm or other erroneous dtc in various modules..

Here are my current reading on a stock ‘23 35” truck, other than some 17” Methods. Should I recalibrate it?

when you recalibrate, its telling the live valve where ride height is, so if you are showing anything other than zeros at ride height, it should be reset...

I recently added 37 BFGs to my 2024 35" truck. Did the SDI top hats. Immediately noticed a little more bump steer on the way home. The first time I recalibrated I was able to get it to zero, I did this outside of the "ET" mode. I figured out how to get it into ET mode and went back to recalibrate again as it still feels a little bump steer is present, now I can only get 3mm front and 13mm rear after doing the recalibration. It will not zero.

I just did the recalibration. Does this look normal? Couldn’t get zeros. I tried twice. I have 1” front eibach only.

Update:
I just realized that maybe the front didn’t zero because I was sitting in it. Could that be it?
