Riding Height Adjustment
NOTE:
Unless otherwise specified, references to Pickup include the F350 Super Duty commercial chassis.
NOTE:
Prior to performing wheel alignment, perform visual and mechanical inspection of wheels, tires and suspension components. See PRE-ALIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS in ALIGNMENT SPECS/PROCEDURES article in the WHEEL ALIGNMENT section.
Before adjusting alignment, check riding height. Riding height must be checked with vehicle on level floor and tires properly inflated. Bounce vehicle several times and allow suspension to settle. Visually inspect vehicle for signs of abnormal height from front to rear or side to side. Check passenger compartment or vehicle bed for extra heavy items and remove if present.
Ride height is measured at center of front and rear wheel house opening. See Fig 1 . Maximum front side-to-side height difference is 5/8" (16 mm). Maximum rear side-to-side height difference is 3/4" (19 mm). If riding height is not as specified, check, repair or replace suspension components as necessary.
