Default Levelling question

Thinking about getting the truck levelled does anyone know if after levelling the dynamic bending headlamps need to be calibrated or do they calibrate themselves.

thanks

Mine is leveled 2" in front and 1" in the back and the auto headlights work like a charm.

I have the dynamic bending headlights, and they self-calibrated. They aim after, exactly where they did before I raised the front 1-7/8".

I did a 2" level on the front plus 34" tires and didn't notice a change or problem with the headlights.

Anyone have any ideas if the auto leveling headlights will do their thing on a 6 inch lift?

I talked to my dealer and they said they can adjust the speedometer and other settings after I put 35 inch tires, so I assume they can do the headlights too, but would be great if they just did it on their own.

6in is asking way too much from the auto leveling headlights. I would expect an alignment would be absolutely necessary. Your dealer can make the adjustment.
